The small ring is only soldered to the front of the cross. It has not come undone, there is no mark there so it was never attached

Thanks for the comments so far. The EK1 has a dimple on the front of the top arm. The EK2 has 2 dimples, one on each side of the bottom arm, nothing that I can see on the top arm....and the EK2 is magnetic. Cheers.

Terry,

Very nice. I have an EKI marked 15, but have never noticed the "dimple". Is this something common to this maker?? I'll have to go home tonight and take a look.

Thanks for sharing, always nice to see sets.

I am not 100% sure whether "no dimples" would be anything to worry about, but I have always assumed that all Orth cross have these.
