    Can usually tell whether its the '67 or the '68 just by pusher feel, the 321 has a sort of shorter travel, crisper/finer click especially on resetting while the 861/1861 requires more force and feels more sturdy and solid.

    Have confirmed its a 321 by slower beat tick tack sound compared to my 861 which beats at a faster rate..

    The pusher test: it's short and crisp clicks on this, when compared to my 861 which is firm and sturdy.
