What about that knob? It looks different. Should it have that beveled shape on the bottom side?

To me it is a normal dial painted red ...
Look at his feedback . Some of the negative is not very nice . It refers to non working to more worrying in this respect : non original parts .. I will admit that sometimes the feedback can be nasty for nothing .

Does Orchi do knobs as well or only dials ?
No kidding : I think one post from Orchi could well save us another 50 posts of f.. about .
As I said before , someone should maybe PM him . NOOOO we do not want to go down the J.J. route again .
Must say I took the liberty of PMing him the other day on a complete different matter and this man was very forthcoming and helpful . Having said that , I would not like to abuse by PMing him again so soon .

I personally purchased my Mk IV DRSD from him, and if you go to his website, you will see that many others have too. The dial has been restored as stated. I would be careful about calling something a fake, as someone may ask you to substantiate your claim."
I missed that thread.... thanks for pointing it out.
