Thanks Paul won't be letting these babies go either, my life bins I think.
Might add that Tony Kay at Kay Optical was excellent too, like last time when I bought my ED82 from him, top bloke!

Congratulations John. My post (#10 above) was from a year and a half ago and I still feel the same way. It's the only bin I'll never sell.

Serial numbers up to 1997 can be identified. After tat it seems records were not kept quite so well. What number do you need dating ? Gary.

Hi,
I recently found a new list of numbers which I am trying to decode but from what I have worked out so far all the 8x32 Trinovids with serial numbers starting with 1548### were in shops and being sold in 2004. I would put the date of manufacture as either 2003 or 2004.

Gary.
