... just adding an example of different level of evolutions So I take it that around '99 they changed to the bike scales then. Thanks Kamakiri
I miss the solid scales. They gave the knife a much better feel IMO.
Not sure if this is helpful, but Victorinox replaced the scales on my SwissChamp that has the clock. Here are the scales they removed and returned to me.(Image removed from quote.)Here are a set of scales from 1999. I believe that is the year as the front of the scale has initials and 1999 embossed in them.(Image removed from quote.)Scales from a Scientist.(Image removed from quote.)
Thanks Grant I did open a new thread once to find out about this.https://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,77049.msg1685300.html#msg1685300Seems we're finally getting to it So far (estimated) we could say then:1992-1999 hollow front scales2002-2004 hollow front & back scalesDoes that sound right?
I've found some from the '80s (I think) that have hand scribed marks for the year wheel. I suspect 80's because the mark is also on black scales with one marked '3' and '83 certainly is in the range of solid, black scale production.
I'm reading the back wheel on this as '01:(Image removed from quote.)I don't see the pointer for the front wheel. I only see the 92 and 002
Not sure about the scales, but i just realized that 2000 is almost 20 years ago... That does not seem right
That's great info! Just how are you going by deciphering the wheels and what's your theorie about the other numbering for any dating please?
Boy, I'm not as think as I smart I am...
... nice typo GrantSame here... I did not think about counting ccw good one.
