Need Info about certain hardware

I was curious about certain hardware for sale on a different site and have a question. Has Apache ever made a Anan 7000DLE MKII with a blue face and round power button?

There is a 7000DLE MKII with a satin brushed face, it comes with an imbedded CPU:

Yes I was aware of that one. There is a 7000DLE with a blue face and a round on/off switch for sale on QRZ.COM
that is being presented as a MKII. I'n not sure it is or not. I didn't think there was a MKII with a blue face, but I could be wrong. My 7000DLE has MKII on the face of the radio where that one does not. I was just curious. Thank you for the responses.

Hope I have not done the seller an injustice as there was a change back to a smaller case after I bought mine , just thought it was not blue but I am open to correction. I'm sure Abhi could confirm either way.

Yes, I have the same feeling. I did not want to indirectly portray the hardware in the sale negatively. I have a black face 7000DLE MKII. It states as much on the front cover. That doesn't mean there was not one without the up front designation. It is identical to the one W1AEX has displayed.
If I were in the market for one, I would like to be sure I was getting the advertised product. As stated, I also hope I have not done an injustice.
