 When I first discovered Benarus a few months back, there were still a few auto Worldivers available, but only the orange version. Only more recently did I discover the blue version. Then I noticed that not only are the bezels different, but the case is too.

After much searching for photos on forums, Google and Flickr, it seems to me that the orange version has a 60min bezel and straight edges either side of the crown, like this:


And the blue version has a 24hr bezel and curved edges, like this:


But then today I came across a blue model with a 60min bezel and straight edges, like this:


So, am I right in my assumptions, and the watch above was a custom order? Or was it buyer's choice and I just haven't seen any of the other combinations? Was there any reason for making two different cases?

Finally, are the 60min and 24hr bezels interchangeable? I only ask as I really like the blue model with the curved edges, but I'd prefer a 60min bezel.
