Keep it safe ... <br /><br />Here is a response to your query <br /><br />"Normally, though not by any means always, it is the last two digits of the caseback code which tell us the year of manufacture, which in this case appears to be 1981. Note that in recent decades, a large inventory of cases had been manufactured and stored in the Chinar plant. The last of these cases, which seem to date from 1998, which have been used in the manufacture of many hand-wound watches assembled during the last three or so years."<br /><br />Jayasrinivasa RaoJayasrinivasa Raohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12749337773506684071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1773162179213274082.post-90554765402953429342023-09-01T21:12:22.763+05:302023-09-01T21:12:22.763+05:30Hi brother, I am also having this watch and it was...Hi brother, I am also having this watch and it was given by my grandfather before his death.
