You know...I have never really looked at just What the engraving said..only that it was engraved lol!
  I Have found at least 2 variants, one the model is called D10/100 the other is D1O/60
I don't know if these Honor 2 different milestones or what?
  It could also be some Wilesco management wanted to change mid stream.
  I suppose someone with an engraver is making knock-offs....by the time they respray the base and engrave the boiler it would be a hard way to make a buck!
  It would not surprise me if a smallish German company changed the engravings mid production.
   Also I just noticed the silver etch model has words in German so this may have been ment for local German sales....the Wilesco script may have been intended for USA market?
  Shooting from the hip I would say if the seller has the wooden box it may be legit? If no box than more likely a knock off.
