That is made by CVA in Britain. It is a Monarch 10ee x 30” between centers. If it is in good shape that is a steal
 
It is a licensed copy of a round dial monarch 10ee with a 30” between centers bed. Most Monarch 10ee have 20” between centers.
 
That one isn't so much although the feed and round dial controls look it, but the early rendition was pretty much a 10ee copy. From hearing guys talk, it seems the copied the quality as well, but can say for sure. Not sure when K&T came into it, but I would expect the one advertised to be a very good lathe! Here's an earlier model, a 10ee clone

Hmmm, my K&T 1a doesn't look anything like a lathe........

... Okay, maybe just a little, but only 'cause I am out of flat spaces to store my lathe bed. :rolleyes:
They would make a nice pair..... Mine, as near as I can date it is a 1913. This time of the year, the shop gets hit pretty hard with the chaos bug, I promise, I will clean it up a little...... You know, one day. :p
