    Just trying to find out what different dial furniture came with 2852 conies, and did it relate to the specific movement, i.e. cal 505...?

    Nope - many different dial styles came with case ref. 2852 with different markers.

    I believe they also came with the 3-6-9 styled dial as well.

    Those are the ones! Did that have a cal 505? Is that regarded as a good movement?

    Yep, they can also come with a 501. It's a good movement if it's properly maintained.

    My dad's 2852 has that exact dial, shame I've never seen one that hasn't weathered like that. I believe Dennis and others call them shark's tooth makers rather than arrowheads

    Yep, the skinny ones are shark's tooth markers.

    It's a deviation from the omega dial style but it is original.
