    I'm interested mainly in the Flieger- and GST lines (3706, 3707 and others). Both approximate case number and production year info is highly welcome! My estimate is cca. 1999-2001.
    Thank you in advance for your kind input!
    Best,
    Robert

    Thank you Mark for the info, in the first round this helps: my plan is to buy one of the mentioned watches for my daughter (for finishing her high-school) who was born 26-09-2000 so the watch has to be "made" in the first nine month of 2000, approx. case numbers between 2730xxx and 2775xxx. I was hoping this series was just made using Luminova but your 3707 (278xxxxx with Tritium) made my decisions more complicated...

    That’s really interesting Robert!
    I gave the 3707 to my daughter as a graduation gift and she wears it daily :o)
    She morning is 21 now.
