Does 386 have the same casing with 233 or 312?

Hi guys, just wondering if the 386 has the same casing as the 233 or 312? Feedbacks would be appreciated... Thanks!

I believe the 386 has the 1950 case but with a composite material vs. SS on the 233 & 312.

+1 Joe!
the 386 should be the same case shape as the 3XX line of auto luminors but with a composite case like 339

Thanks for the reply guys. I was asking because i prefer the thinner casing of the 233. But since its an auto, it must have the same casing as the 312... :(

I as well love the thinner case of the 233, had a 312 and it was just too thick IMHO for me anyway. Sold it, grabbed a 233 and am thrilled

Sort of the same situation for me. I had a 351, thick although nice and light-weight case. I sold it a few weeks ago and picked up a 233K. I couldn't be happier. The case of the 233 is thinner than the 351 (and 312), but the overall profile is about the same when you factor in the domed crystal. It still wears damn comfortable

Can't agree more... 233 is the modern day pam.. sleek and super stealthy to wear!
