16660 36.65mm Outside Diameter; 29.7 inner diameter

So if this is accurate, it totally makes sense...if the inserts that RSC provided were 16600 inserts, it would fit over the crystal of the 14060 but it wouldn't go into the bezel. I just compared my old 14060 picts to my 16600 and seems like the 16600 and 14060 have very similar looking fonts but the 4's are slightly different. I do remember thinking that the "4" didn't look quite right and now I know why...
Thanks for the measurements. I couldn't remember the exact numbers when I posted but recalled the 16600 (and 16660) inserts were just a shade bigger. 0.10mm would certainly be enough to prevent it from pressing into your bezel.

I bet they found a 16600 insert.
