Hello dear sir. I visited here today in the UK. It's too polished, and the embossing is disappearing. I purchased it because the shape of the leg is cute. I will maintain it from now on. Regards Jun
It’s a Monitor 127 with the stubby fixed legs. The 17 and 17B had folding legs. See this reference document Some observations on the history of the Monitor 17 and Monitor 127 stoves. Best regards,
Hello @Twoberth Thank you. My MONITOR was only the parts shown in the picture at the time of purchase. The burner is a fixed type like 123. But what surprised me was the double internal structure of the burner. But are the burners and tanks made in the same age? If you can understand from my picture, please let me know. I have doubts, but I burned it without eating supper
The original Monitor 127 had a burner with a cast iron flame plate like this Your burner has a captive brass plate from much later, and also has slits at the bottom of the stem like this. So your burner dates from after 1950, when this patent was filed https://classiccampstoves.com/threads/improved-burner-british-patent-678845-1950.57/ So your tank looks to be 1930s and the burner 1950s. But a nice working stove.
@Twoberth Thanks for the proper and concise advice. We knew from this forum that tanks and burners were of different ages. It's common. However, when it came to canp. at night, I wanted a stove that would definitely work, so I bought it. Maybe because the legs were also nice. ☺️ Since the packing shape is different from PURIMUSU and Optimus, I have to make it myself, but I will cherish the British flame that I got for the first time. God Save the Queen ❗ Regards Jun.
