This is a valuable FN-less model, produced shortly after the first MOD.SG (estimated production from 1953 to 1955). It has a very deep red color, with a beautiful hue and a unique elegance.

A full overhaul has been performed for sale. Thorough cleaning, degreasing, and polishing of the oscillating parts have been carried out, and it has been carefully assembled using genuine ABU oil and grease.

The crest has also been removed and polished once. There are no defects or missing parts. The scratch markings on the frame, side cup, and brake plate all match with an X.
