It was interesting to find escape hatches on the lower hull of this vehicle.
Most of Pz. Bflswg. III Ausf. K’s were modified from Pz. III Ausf. M in late 1942, while the command vehicles from Grobdeutschland Div. seemed to have lower hulls of Pz. III Ausf. J; or maybe this lower hull comprised some parts which recycled from Pz. III J and M.

The commander of Grobdeutschland Div., Hyacinth Graf Strachwitz stood inside the cupola.
Unlike some other versions of Pz. III using two pieces cupola, the Pz. Bflswg. III Ausf. K employed a single piece cupola as late production Pz. IV G, thus the thickness of its cupola increase to 80-90mm.

Unlike some other versions of Pz. III, the Pz. Bflswg. III Ausf. K chose to place the items/tools on fenders in a different way; for example, the cleaning robs for L/60 barrel could be found.
