It is fake for me, one thing more to look is the sign of eletric welding on the pin mount, totally agree with the rings.

Hi Nick thanks for the answer, did not know about it! as I don't know many othe things but about the bluish color coming from welding I quite sure but still open to learn something more have you seen it in other original badges?
Thanks
Thanks for the comments. I have learned some things.....at a small cost. Would have probably been better to donate that amount to the forum.
The right-hand one's a fake IMO. Pin's too long,hardware's wrong & detail's poor on the obverse sorry. Stewy
I compared my fake wound badge with my fake balloon observer's badge and they both look very similar in regards to the metal, back, and especially the clasps. So I assume these fakes are made by the same faker. So steer clear of anything with these kind of clasps.
Interesting comparison!
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
