Well done John. There are also differences in the dial: the indices of minute 27 and 33 are long in the earlier versions and short in the later ones. Did this change happen together with the new hands?

Well what do you know! There are some differences in the minute markers - I guess I'll have to update the article! THANKS!

If you look at the dial comparison shots in this article of mine: http://www.rolexreferencepage.com/articles/6.html

You will will see the skinny and fat hands versions appear the same.
