My feeling says that the seller is right.
The toolmarks at the inner edge are faked as well.
The number stamps inside are not the correct fond.
Also, the chinstrap looks far to new. Looks like it was made yesterday.
These are my humble observations and I'm sure that more experienced collectors in this field soon chime in.

The decal is fake - and that would be enough for me

You guys are awesome. Thanks for the feedback. I had noticed the maker stamp font looked a little different from the stamps I see on other helmets. But, I wasn't sure if there may have been some variations on that. Good info!
I guess helmets like this one, while certainly identifiable, serve as a good reminder that we must remain ever vigilant. Thrown in with the rest of the eBay helmets of the world, this one would probably fool some well intentioned folks out of a good sum of money if positioned by the right unscrupulous seller. On the other hand, it would make a nice placeholder for those who can't afford the real deal or want something to fill in for a time. Hopefully that's where it ends up.

Must admit, not a helmet guy but owned a few in the past, I agree with John on the decal, look how thin the detailing is, bad decal

I've never owned one and I admit that I struggle to tell the difference between Original and Repro these days...I wouldn't dare buy one without checking here first either, lol...
cheers, Glenn

The whole thing is bad.....

I would say it is a BW helmet.
