Doesn't look good at first glance.

Not being an expert on alte art feldmutze, but it looks wrong to me, though this is just my opinion and I cant say why I dont like it.

PS the see through label looks plastic, not cellophane as period caps should be and the oakleaves look like repros, IMO

Grey leather sweat band is post war too I think. Looks like a doctored up post war cap - original purpose unknown to me.

Correct, a Bundeswehr cap. Grey bands can be original to the TR period of course but not this one. Plastic shield is a dead give away. It would actualy be worth more in it's original post war form than it is now.

The stitching on the inside headband does not look WWII period to me either.

Many manufacturers survived the war or reconstituted after it. A lot of suppliers of Wehrmacht material continued to produce things after the war including military items. Ritter, Assman, Continental, Siemens, Mercedes, Krupp to name a few. The cap in question certainly could have been made by the same manufacturer that was active during the war.
