I've had both and the build quality feels the same.  Optically they are identical as well. The 2 big differences are:
1) Version I allows the hood to be attached in reverse for transportation 
2) Version I is less convenient when used with the newer macro adapter (might want to do some researching if you plan to use the macro adapter)

I replaced the hood with a rubber one I found on Ebay. Much better.

Talking about hood on the Macro-Elmar-M 😄.

The hood 12575 received with the lens is nice but I found a bit long/when mounted in operation ... for such small lens.

I know I could reverse it.

I've tried out the ITOOY/12580 ( cap not found ! ) or even 12585 that I had

Never 100% satisfied with one of them.

...

I forgot that ( 😏 just seen minutes ago ! ) ... I finally attached (for years now) not 'recommended hood' 12550 (like this one) ... taken from Elmar-M 50mm,

screwed in the front of the lens then forgot about it, as part of the lens ( I took care not unscrewing when I pull the lens out ), I know now why I use

this Macro-Elmar-M always uncollapsed.

Cap 14038 snaps in just fine.
