Yes...I believe that MKII originally had a "lume" acrylic bezel (an homage to the FF50), but it was discontinued...and yes the PRS-50 has the luminous markers on its acrylic bezel.  Both Great watches, but more different that one would expect.  When I got my PRS-50, I planned on flipping the MKII...but they are both distinctive timepieces!  Except for the original FF50 "homage" theme, they are very different in finish and look, dome v flat crystal, dial markings, bright v blasted finish...as to oem straps, the MKII is much more comfortable.  That said, I put both of mine on leather.
