0 Points, Typewriter Hunter

Hi
I don't want to be a typewriter hunter per se but I have inherited a heavy old Olympia typewriter and I cannot identify which model it is so I am having to hunt for photos of similar but to no avail. The ribbon colour selector is on the left and the serial number doesn't correspond to anything in the list. It looks a bit like an SM9 with the OLYMPIA badge on the left and the "i" logo on the right but the listed SM9s have the colour shift on the right. The number is 7-4893514 hand engraved on the cast iron chassis adjacent to where the backspace mechanism attaches, viewable only once the carriage assy is removed. I can post some photos. None of the listed serial numbers have a 7- suffix.
Thank you.
Edit... It might be SG3S?
