Rolex Oyster Case shapes/lugs slightly different between models?
Hello, I have scoured the internet and cannot find anyone asking this question. I just recently acquired a 1971 Rolex 5500 and I noticed that while the 5500 has sharper lines that the lugs are thinner looking and not as long as my rolex 1500 which is a 1969. Did rolex use slightly different versions of their oyster case for the air king vs the date? I guess I always assumed most oyster cases during similar years and size (34mm) would have been the same.
