Exactly. Even from a distance, I usually find it easy to tell because with the 92F, the slide-mounted safety tends to interrupt the smooth, flowing lines of the slide and stands out like a pair of "ears". On a PT92, the top of the slide is perfectly smooth and un-interrupted.

Then there's also the fact that the shape of the PT92's trigger guard is a little bit different than that of the 92F (it's more "flared" rather than squared, like on the 92F), but that's a difference that won't be as obvious from far away.
