    Oooohhhh aaaahhh! Very nice!

    The outer burner cap looks as if it’s been painted, too.

    Cheers

    I think you're correct. Here's some more photos of the cap.

    Great stove. Burner very reminiscent of the Primus 110.

    Great set Ben, I love it! I have a passion for this burner :)

    @Ed Winskill sure is the same burner of the 110 :) Just shorter riser/needle rack.

    Overly complicated for a backpacking stove, I love it!
    It shall have the 'Primus No. 57' sticker on the inside of the lid. Have you had it running yet?
