Simpson 260 2

I recently purchased a Simpson 260 Series 2 and the face is much different than the normal. What’s different is the red lettering and the left and right control dials. I thought the dials. I have seen a YouTube video where I have seen this exact model but yet to receive a response. I have attached a link hopefully to find out more about this version. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Simpson-260...-127632-2357-0

It's just an older version. What's the question?

Simpson 260 type 2:

Simpson 260 type 2A:

Simpson 260 type 3:
https://www.simpson260.com/260-3/simpson_260-3.htm

AC scales look ok for a type 2, but the chicken head knobs don't... I believe they should be round.

On the other hand, look at this thread:

Welcome to VK !
Simpson 260's & RCA volt ohmist were the go to meters in the day.
Still useful but you gotta watch it. You WILL fry it if you measure
higher voltages on ohms by accident. I know, I smoked a few myself !
