Hi David,

I will try to get a better pic from the seller. I am not sure it's original. I should have everything answered for you tomorrow.

Thanks!

Well: my first feeling is 'wrong' or very rare (I've never seen one like this).

In case it helps, it's an 18038 single quick model. Anyone know the name of it?

Don't have better pics yet...waiting on the seller.

I'm no expert, but I have never seen such a dial. Maybe someone knows better.

Looks like it could of been a redone dial, never saw such a dial, it looks like and 80s model I've only seen them with stick or diamond markers. Some of the pros might know more.
