Mares 1st?

[axxel57]

Found that little beauty, I like the DIN Connector.
Looks for me like an early MR12, but the cap is different as I know them, and the main spring is shorter.
Is it maybe still from AMF times?
Does anybody here know the model name of this 1st?
Lowwall....?

Thanks!
Seems to be, as I thought, to be an early MR12 Model, so it's already Mares I guess.
Congrats to your baby!
I think it's a real cool DIN 1st!

Yep. It's a Mares. The completely cylindrical MR12's are all Mares. They started with the MR12 III in 1981 and have maintained essentially the same shape since. The only real change was changing the fixed volcano orifice to a replaceable seat and adding a 2nd HP port in the early '80s.

The original Voit MR12 and AMF Swimaster/Mares MR12II were more squared off and had the IP adjustment on the side instead of the end.
