I do like this version very much (and I really like the NOS AS movement) and will probably end up with one, but I still only see the differences mentioned....from Eddie's site  description of the 50-B...

"The manufacturing drawing for the case and movement detail is identical to the PRS-50 shown further down this page, the only differences are the detail for the domed acrylic crystal on this version. "
