Need help in identifying 911 steering wheel.

Can anyone help identify this wheel? I've never seen an early 911 wheel with a raised hub on it, and a recess for the nut. There is no part number stamped, only "69", "K7", and something tiny and illegible where the nut goes. It's leather wrapped.

Any info on year and fitment woul be appreciated.

It looks like a hub extender was added to an early stlye wheel. Is it a 400mm or 380mm wheel? Can you post a photo of the backside of the hub from staight on with the wheel laying face down? Thanks.

Looks like a normal '69 thru '73 wheel to me ...

Some were leather covered and others were rubberized.

Neither the wheel on my 69 nor 72 have the hub on the back of the spokes. On both the back of the spokes mounts up almost flush to the switch housing. Also, this wheel came with the round plastic button with leather facing...no butterfly. And it is leather.

It's a 400mm wheel, and Ill post another photo.

There was an option for extended hub steering wheels for the very tall/long of leg/short of arm types.
