In both cases no pun intended the bezel of the ref. 2497 has a gently sloping convex shape that ends at the mid-case which sticks out like a ring that the crown nestles inside. Part of the argument of the aesthetic strength of Vichet cases is link that the elongated lugs perfectly match the curvature of the bezel. That might be true but it's subtle.
