I was about to say my 102DF lacks the witness marks. However, I finally found them but only with the aid of a magnifying glass (and my eyes aren't that bad...yet). To my mind, and eyes, they are almost too small to be of any practical value.

Witness marks become extraneous after the guides are on. I use them only to fit ferrules.
