Thinking about adding a Batman. I thought it was discontinued after 6 years on oyster and then back in the catalog after a short window first on jubilee and the available with either bracelet. I believe the movement changed but were there any changes to the case?

People say slight reshaped case … but I can’t see it

I have an 11 series BLNR and a 12 series BLRO an can’t see a difference in the case.

Two possible answers:

Yes
- There are videos supposedly showing the difference. Those who have seen it swear on their mother's grave that the new one is slimmer.

Kind of like this:
(Stand up straight and puff your chest out...)

No
- No one has bothered to use calipers to measure. There is no definitive proof anything changed.
- Many who have both models say they're the same.

We need pics taken from 90deg angle to show any potential difference. It's easy to achieve a huge apparent size difference if the photo it shot at an angle. (See the recent "wrist shot size" thread where Sub can look like a Deepsea...)
