Re: Fifth Batch of 1163 Cases
In Response To: Re: Fifth Batch of 1163 Cases ()

if you are referring to the "viceroy" with MH bezel on eBay - you should also note that the Bezel insert is an aftermarket insert - you can see that it doesn't quite fit correctly - the aftermarket inserts are thinner so they appear sunken within the actual bezel. Another way to tell the bezel is a fake is the font on some of the numbers - for example - an authentic MH has a 7 with a hook on the top, where as the aftermarket bezels lack this detail.

As for the circular pushers - I'm no expert but this would appear to be a replacement IMHO
