    hi guys,
    I am enjoying this Connie but I want to learn more about the watch I am wearing so hopefully you guys can help me out.
    2 points I dont understand in the case back:
    2852 8sc I can not find any info about the 8sc part, what does it indicate.
    Patent + 315164 (usually Patent + Apllied)
    Thank you so much for your help!
    Harry

    Really? You bumped it after less than an hour? News Flash: Sometimes you have to wait a bit to get an answer. Especially when the information is readily available with a site search.

    @Harryfromhanoi -

    How about pictures of the rest of the watch?

    “SC” = Seconds Central or center seconds.

    “8” = 8th production run or variation for this case reference.

    315164 is the Swiss Patent Number. You can Google this.

    Hope this helps,

    Thank you for your kind explaination.
    I read in some topics here in OF saying that there are diffrent materials for the arowheads and hands (ss/silver/wg), not sure where I can find those kind of info on mine, sir. I thought they are all ss markers and hands.
    Harry.

    Wow, that is absolute beaty, always want to have a black dial but it is kind of difficult to sort out. I am also learning Desmond ‘s blog, but it will takes times.
    Any body know the meaning of the small triangle as I did not see it very often.

    As I am learning, the small triangle could be the responsibility marks of the case maker.
