Date My Fuchs

[panos]

Just bought some 7&8 by 16 Fuchs for my 911. I found the date stamps and understand that they state the month and year, but what I found on the back of my Fuchs is "2781". I would understand any first two numbers up to 12 (for the months) but what does the "27" mean?
Thanks in advance,
Panos

Are they good looking? I'm cheap, not easy.

In Europe they use the week of the year something is built (1st 2 numbers) followed by the last 2 representing the year. I.E. made in the 27th week of 1981.

I may be wrong about Fuchs but I have seen this date coding system used before in manufacturing goods (tires possibly). DP

Thanks, I think I have actually heard of that on the forum before but I couldn't remember. My searches could only bring up the month and year though so I was not too sure.

week/year.
