Hitachi CSP-685

I have spotted this nice Hitachi set on Ebay Italy:

Anyone knows this set? is it delta gun or inline? early 70s? prone to develop bad CRTs? the seller says that the TV displays the image in "only one color"

That looks very similar to a late 60's Hitachi I have. It's definitely a delta gun, probably from the late 60's-early 70's. My avatar is actually a close up of its CRT.

My friend at the local tv shop (recently deceased, RIP) had one of these as his shop TV. I offered 20 bucks for it but he wouldn't let it go. had a great pic! Wonder what happened to it.
