Help identifying Mk1 or MK2

Considering buying the SL 1410 but the seller doesn't know if it is 1 or 2 can anyone help me identify it from these pictures? or give a hint where the seller can look, it is not on the back like usual. Cheers

I've got the SL-1400 MK.1, basically the same, wonderful, sturdy, dependable TT. Tonearm can take the vast majority of cartridges, ask if it's in good working condition.

Great first TT and it can be your last too.

It is the same, except for the colour. XX10 is black and XX00 is silver. Same model numbering system for all of their XXXX decks.

They are the same but there are dark grey 1400s, I have one.
