Hi guys!

As you know I already have an Olivetti ISO-PT w/ dyesubs, but unfortunately my relationship with PBTs is not the best, since I have always preferred OG Cherry/GMK doubleshots caps ;)
That said, my long search for an Olivetti ISO-PT w/ OG doubleshots in decent condition is over! To complete my "blue collection" of the rare Olivetti w/ dyesubs (see here: https://imgur.com/a/jyO4V ), I present the new acquisition:

As for the difference for the dyesubs, the color tone is much more beige (PBTs showed a more gray shade) and the lettering blue tone is also much darker, as follows:

Although the dyesub colors are much more appealing, for my daily routines the doubleshot caps will be much more useful ;)

Are you going to replace the MY assembly with a GH80-3000 PCB? Or keep it as-is for historical sake?
