fake or genuine?

Hi, i see that 16610 case. in description mentioed 100% guarantee genuine but actually the small round notch on the back side of the case (in front of the crown notch) looks like smaller than the 16610 case genreally. all of them that i have seen with wide notch, not narrow like that.

https://www.chrono-shop.net/en/a-r-c...-y-serial.html

are there also 16610 cases edition like that or its probably fake?

Thanks

I think it's fake. The 16610 had chamfered lugs, this case has no lugs chamfer.

If in doubt.. there is no doubt.

All 16610s had chamfers? Here’s two. either I didn’t know what I got or the chamfer is minuscule or they don’t have chamfers. Z Kermit. M black.

The link goes to an archived listing that has already been sold.

Can’t really see the benefit for a review of some stranger’s mid-case.
