Cartier Tortue 2496C vs WGTO0006

I was hunting for a nice example of the 2496C before Cartier hit us with a new version of the Tortue.

Other than the price tag (~15k vs. ~30k) and dial design... is there a significant difference between the new model and previous model? I know the new one is limited to 200 but IIRC the previous model was also limited. Previous model has an open case back. I couldn't find information whether the new one does.

I think I prefer the new dial layout and gold hands but I'm finding a hard time justifying the $15k premium over the previous model.

Previous Model (2496C):




Current Model (WGTO0006):
