actually an interesting question..

the 806 should be 1966, if I have the original caseback (the person I bought it from was alledgedly the first owner so I should be safe there).

The "Patrouille de France" (ref. A13022) is more difficult, we know they were produced in the 90's but I haven't been able to find something more concrete. I suspect '90 - '93.

The "Snowbirds" (ref. A11021) is probably more late 90's, we do know that there is a Snowbird LE in the Chronolog 02 of '97-'98. The ref. number covers the period 1993-2002.

Anyone have more info?

Tactic - many thanks!

I actually only now remembered that I have the full paperwork on the Snowbird... :oops:

It was originally purchased in Antigua (!) in August 1997..
