Ciao Mick!
I checked my A384 brown compax and it got, as all my Zenith El Primero A3xxx, 12 sides polygon on caseback.
If it can help...
P
: Here is my latest Zenith purchase, possibly a ref.
: A384:
: I'm researching these brown or brownish variants of the ref. A384.
: We've seen sub dials in a whole range of color shades between
: original black over dark brown ("tropical") to this
: light caramel color. I have reasons to assume that the caramel
: version is a separate model. I've seen disjunct ranges of serial
: numbers and all caramel variants have a back with a 14-sided
: polygon (as opposed to 12 sides on a true ref. A384, although I
: know one with black sub dials and 14-sided polygon back).
: As the sample investigated so far is rather small I would
: appreciate to see other tropical or caramel watches in order to
: falsify or to support my hypothesis. Please send color correct
: images of the dial and the back, serial number, further infos
: you could provide. May I dream of a first owner's original
: documents naming a different reference number?
: Have a caramel-sweet weekend,
: Mick
