Sub Date Measurements through the Years.

Here they are using actual measurements..

But you'll have to convert... My tools are in US inch-measurements..


....................Sub Date 16610....... Sub Ceramic........... Sub Date 1680

Thickness ................ .500" .............. .500" .................. .546" (measured in the center of dial using micrometer)
Bezel Diameter............1.575" ............ 1.585" ................ 1.574"
Lug (case) Length ... 1.840" ............ 1.990" ................. 1.870"
Case ....................... 1.550" ............ 1.585" ................ 1.530" (measured from under crown across the back)
Crystal ..................... 1.175" ............ 1.175" ................ 1.177"

All three use the same hands...

All three use different spring-bars

Yes, "lug length" is the measurement from tip to tip and is the same as "case length" would be..

So, the answer is no, they are all different, although within .150" (3.8mm) of each other (that's read one hundred fifty thousandths of an inch), or slightly over 1/8".
