Default BER or Catfacing

Hi Folks, This is my first post and its a pleasure to be a part of Tomatoville.

I'm growing Italian Coure de bues and I had a lovely bunch the first time around but in the second harvest the tomatoes seem to have a problem. Is this BER? It doesn't look like to me...and I can't figure out what is wrong with these tomatoes.





The first time around...

The picture resolution is too low to see it very well. If it's BER, the spots will more soft and rotted. Catfacing is hard scar tissue which is more likely to happen on a large tomato.

Looks like catfacing to me. Here's a good short article:
