For instance, if it was '99' it would have originated from UK; '01' and it would have been American. Again, don't know if STANAG and NATO numbers are comparable, the only comparison i could make are the Marathon watches which have a '21' (Canadian) number but are used by the Americans. Hope this does'nt confues the issue! :roll:
