I didn't notice the round vs. straight numbers before.
After looking at them, and mine, I think it's actually the white paint that is round not the number itself. Where the paint finishes the circle, it is either rounded of or perpendicular.

I noticed that some of 114270 dials have 2 "swiss made" types;
| swiss | made |
|swiss|made|

They correspond to different "LO" fonts in the EXPLORER print;
LO
L0

114270's also have at least three, 5 minute interval marker styles

I

If anyone knows how or why these differences exist, I'd love to know. I started a similar thread, but it didn't gain much traction in the sea of speculation threads. Glad to see I'm not the only one interested in this.
