A classic Lonsdale is 6½ × 42, which converts to 165.1 × 16.66875 mm. Habanos lists Cervantes at 165 × 42 and Dalias at 170 × 43. These source-specific records are kept distinct.
Lonsdale versus Lancero
A Lonsdale is generally thicker and shorter than a classic Lancero. In this reference, Cervantes is 165 mm by 42 ring, while Laguito No. 1 is 192 mm by 38 ring. The latter needs substantially more usable length even though it needs less width.
Look at the usable channel, not the gift box
A packaging measurement or closed-case measurement is irrelevant to the final interior comparison. Missing interior length cannot be inferred from a photograph. Use a measured interior value or a supplier-stated maximum before treating a case as a candidate.
