Very nice! I love these. It's a childhood fan of mine as many of you already know it. This is the last version to be made in Hong Kong so most likely to be from 1987-1988. Notice the thick motor and the lack of lines on the brackets.

Notice the thick motor and the lack of lines on the brackets. i saw the sticker label on top of motor and said november 1986 so yes it's all correct  |

Before doing any researches I immediately thought of the Guangdong province in southeast China as it's the most important manufacturing concentration in China. It's the province that is located just west of Hong Kong and one of the only province that links Hong Kong with the rest of China so it did't move very far. Guangzhou, Shenzen and Foshan are the main cities there. According to SMC's website, SMC ceiling fans are currently made in Foshan. At the bottom where it says Manufacturing services. This address is not in Hong Kong. www.smc.com.hk/co_directory/co_directory.html |

According to what Jeremy said.. 1986 was most likely the year the design of the Laguna changed to the rectangular switch housing design.. Which sounds about right.. |
