just started a 1655 project based on a raffles 1675 case.

heavily reshaping the case almost done!
but the raffles caseback is of course incorrect for a 1655. I have a Cartel 1655 caseback and 1680 caseback in my parts box which unfortunately do not fit the raffles case.
Raffles does not have a 1655 caseback.

only other option would be to reshape the 1675 caseback but that still would be too flat compared to a 1655 caseback which has a taller dome

anyone know of a 1655 caseback which fits the raffles case?
