Version of ROO case back

Hi guys,

I have noticed that there are at least two versions of case back for the same ROO model. For example in the below two pics, both are ROO 26170 with H serial no. but has different font and lettering arrangement of the "Offshore". Does anybody knows which one is a newer version and since when it is available to ROO?

Thanks in advance.

After further research on the internet, I found that both the case back of Carbon Diver & SS Diver bears the same font and lettering arrangement of the first pic in my original post. Hence by deduction, I tend to believe that the case back that uses the font on a Diver is a more recent version. Anybody would agree with me?
