Number 1625. It must be an illusion of scale. It looks broader than mine, but maybe yours hadn't been fully compressed into a joint.

Yes, I did use the flat end of the die first - I tightened it as far as it'll go using a 16mm ratchet spanner. It was definitely doing its job because I could see it forcing the pipe out at the other end of the block.
Then I tightened the two 10mm bolts as far as they'd go before reversing the die and screwing it back in again with the 16mm ratchet and making the flare.
All correct. Your flares will be correct.
