Description

The Alpha 1 Model 2 is distinguished from the original Alpha 1 by its non-plated, black plastic body and the use of synthetic "Porvair" covering instead of genuine leather. This specific unit shows the common "cracked" or dry-rot texture on the top panel, which is a standard aging characteristic of the original synthetic materials.
