Help needed on this BDM Jacket

[Salonete]

Hi all mates
Thanks for all that helped, i asked for more photos and here it is:

please tell me what do you think?

[Adrian Stevenson]

Now you have posted good photos, I would say the insignia is resewn for sure. The HJ diamond is not really folded under very well and the area insignia looks poorly sewn.

Cheers, Ade.

[Salonete]

Thanks adrian but you think its fake ?
The diamond and the gebeit?
or just misplaced or resewn?

[Adrian Stevenson]

I cannot see any evidence for any insignia being there before, such as fading, old stitch marks, wear, dirt, etc. I would say this is an old period jacket to which the insignia has been sewn.

Cheers, Ade.

The triangle looks like a good original example. Agree the insignia looks like it's added on.

[Salonete]

Ok thanks Adrian & Frank i have the seller on hold because i dont really know if it is worthy or not, The Triagle looks added on but its real or fake to you guys

[FrankBooth]

As I posted before, the triangle looks good IMO from the photos shown. This triangle by itself would probably sell in the 250 Euro range on dealer sites. More on some sites, less on others.

all looks alot better in those pics, so its been restored i have no problem with restored uniforms as long as all parts are original and matching condition and if you dont then buy it as i would ands its a good price aswell

I do a lot of sewing, and those do look like they have been re-sewn, and a really bad sew job at that.

the edges on the insignia are not flat, and smooth, they are even because some one did not care, they wanted to do a quick job, and make quick buck.

it really is crappy sewing.
