That's the same as the seig sc3 that I have. Except I don¡¯t have the cam on the tail stock and I have a cover over the leadscrew. Its the one with the ? hp brushless motor, no gear change, it has no speed readout, that's an optional extra. Don ?

The Real Bulls are slightly different to the Sieg, where different means
they have nice little extra touches.
What you're looking at is basically one of these:
The 7x lathes come in two versions; the originals like most of us have, and
then the newer (sometimes called 'Super') variants that have a better motor.
The new ones can do 50-2500 RPM without needing the Hi/Lo gear, everything
else is much the same.
Some have a shorter tailstock so you gain another inch.
