What was the model number for the second version of the F1? I’m looking for a body on Ebay but the descriptions sometimes don’t mention the model.

The second version of the original F-1 is commonly referred to as the F-1n or F-1(n). Some improvements were the plastic-tip wind lever and film door memo holder.
The completely redesigned camera from 1981 is usually called the New F-1, but some may refer to it as the F-1N

The easiest way to tell them apart is in ^^ the description right here says it all..
In addition the NEW F1 has a matte finish and battery door's in the front.
