The Campy has standard ball bearings, yet the cups externally are the same size\/shape essentially.  It also is a bit differennt than the \u003ca title=\"Saavedra SC headset (velobase)\" href=\"http:\/\/velobase.com\/ViewComponent.aspx?ID=2DD3C399-E00C-4066-AFBF-A829016BF7A8\u0026amp;Enum=111\u0026amp;AbsPos=1664\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSaavedra Super Competition\u003c\/a\u003e, which has more ovaloid cups like the Stronglight Delta headset.
