Horological Meandering: one is bent index/curb pins and one is spring for protecting the hairspring

the omega calibre 321 see photo has the bent index pins-easier to adjust. the rolex /valjoux calibre 722-1/72b has the spring for protecting the hairspring-part no 6610b both are designed by the ebauche manufacturer valjoux and lemania and not an after thought by rolex and omega to upgrade etc.
