officer's case back

French translation: fond de boîtier officier - dos de boîtier -

English term or phrase: officer's case back
The new models are all water-resistant to 3 ATM. Automatic manufacture movements Caliber 90 and Caliber 100 beat inside the modern timekeepers, whose perfect finishing is characterized by all the typical elements of the Glashütte art of watchmaking, visible through a sapphire crystal case back. Those who would like to keep their exclusive treasures to themselves can do so with the additional officer’s case back in the matching case metal.

Il s'agit d'un communiqué de presse pour la sortie de nouvelles montres haut de gamme. J'ai du mal à trouver l'équivalent à utiliser, j'ai l'impression qu'il s'agit d'un espèce de "cache".
Je ne comprends pas non plus à quoi correspond "the matching case metal".
Merci de votre aide
