Something I just found out and wanted to share: the display caseback from a 40mm 6498 "Geervo" watch fits perfectly on the mini fiddy and 45mm rad cartel cases (the ebay cheapies). It's very thin and has large opening. ImageImage

Good to know. I have a full drawer full of CB's that probably fit other cases. Will have to check when i need one.

Very comfortable Double-sided mat suitable for watchmakers. I use them for 2 years and to my opinion it's much better than Bergeon. No smell, no deformation, comfortable color (BlueGreen), moderately soft.

I think it's due to proportions.

55mm case = 26mm lugs
43mm case = ~20mm lugs
