Hey,
Today I bought this Tab, together with the Insignia,
wich I posted in the "Herr, Luft und Marine" Board.
I would love to get some opinions on this one either.
It only costed a few bucks, so it's not so tragic, If it is Not real.
Mit kameradschaftlichen Grüßen!!

If you need Close Up pictures to examine the Tab, please tell me, which part I have to photograph, that you can look for any Red Flags.

Here are some better pictures,I hope they are good enough to compare them
with known real examples. The buckram looks similar to some known real examples I saw, but the piping makes me worry, I dont know enough to verify them...
Every opinion is welcome!
Vielen Dank! Mit kameradschaftlichen Grüßen!!

Better pictures of the front

I'm not really experienced with rank tabs but I don't think the litzen is correct for a ss tab , and the large amount of extra material to the reverse would cause me concern.
Let's see what others think.
Cheers
Dave

And do note that there is even more material on one side of the reverse , to accommodate for the double litzen - which is of course nonsense .. !
