Schmitz Type Cases - the same, but different

This may have been mentioned before but I tried a search and can't find it...
The case on the right in each photo is serial No. 14* and the case on the left is a 27*.
Spot the difference?

The 14* has a bearing at the 7 O'clock position under the bezel.


Does this help in any way to settle the discussion that these cases, the 14*, were around in the early days of the Automatic Autavias?
I hope so.
