I check out some pictures and based on a given length of 6500mm
I come to the following rough figures: 
 
Diameter hull                                   1600 mm
Diameter front porthole outside         700 mm
Diameter front porthole inside            466 mm 
(these diameters indicate that the porthole could be original designed as 
entrance..)
 
 
Now idear about the thickness of the acrylic
- but will check out PHSME about standard flange angles tonight.

For me it looks like the biggest diameter porthole used in that deep. 
 
Has somebody here inner and outer diameter and the thickness?

The pictures of Titan that I see in water show 16 bolts holding the 
retaining ring in place.  See attached photo.

I have seen a video how they make the carbon cylinder and can imagine that 
the boat imploded in longitudinal direction. 
Create a massive shock wave with push the window out (not in). As I saw in 
another video the window was hold by only 4 bolts outside. 
 
All titan parts in the video seems undamaged.
