EK2 marked "25" - some doubts about authenticity

[Ghibli]

Hi again,

I have some doubts about authenticity of another recent purchase EK2 marked "25".

Anyone got a "25" to compare with? Comments are more than welcome!
(fingers crossed)

Bye,
G.

I'm not expert on these but it looks original to me...

Hello! I think it looks good! I found these pictures of another 25 on the net.

Hello
yes cross that started the thread is a good one (the 2nd too of course). Sometimes we can find "25s" that have soft details on dates, very slim.
Another charateristic of some of them is this paint, pretty matt and fragile but nice, in this case the last touch was applied when cross was already assemblied, for this reason there are traces on frame.

Fabri is correct about the fragile paint, here is my marked '25' !
