It will fit if that's what you are asking. It's an older flat four insert

Is it the correct part number for a gen 16610 I guess is what I wanted to know. Is this the one people swap into their rep 16610's.

I see them advertised as for early 16610. Can someone tell/show me the differences, thanks.

Yes it will fit.

The 16610 and 16800 bezels are the same size, so they fit the same inserts. Many 16800s and early 16610s (with a T<25 dial) have a flatter top of the 4 in "40", as in your picture. Newer 16610's hae a pointy "4". That's the difference.

I can't tell the difference and want to make sure it's not a rep in a opened package.

Looks good to me- yes it is gen.
The pointy 4 came out in 2003- when the 16610T case came out.

Before that the case had lugholes and the flat 4 insert

This is an early y serial- 2002-3

Thanks, I ended up buying it, I bought it in advance for a TC Sub V5 with a KH dial(when ever he gets them back in). Is anyone good at drilling lug holes?
