was introduced in 2005. Originally only as 40mm. Platinum or red gold case, with a silver gllouche dial. I dont remember exactly the year it was introduced in 38mm, but my guess would be 2007? In 2015 a new type of dial was offered in the regular collecti... 

I forgot the back story on the changes... I'm sure TJG can chime in with more details.

I was shown the difference a few weeks ago when at the NYC Boutique

Think the CB is so over rated with printed dial

It would still appear that there is materially more work, if you count for failures, in the CB dial though.

That said, I do have a soft spot for the white gold “pressed” dials, and of late have even come around to seeing the beauty in the Boutique partial MOP dials. Which CS have you been thinking about?

Mine was #30 from Feb 2006

That should give you a reference - it was 40mm Cazalea ...  

Mine is #367 from 2008.

And is, as the OP well knows, a 38mm version. Would #367 mean the 367th 38mm platinum CS, or would it mean the 367th CS overall?

That would be overall!

However, be careful with Reading too much in to Journe case numbers - there is not always a strict logic to them.

I'll check the SN# of mine
