British Mk. III helmet with unit insignia

[Gottmituns]

Hi,
This helmet is for sale. Do you think it's a real deal? And maybe you know what unit it can be?
Thanks for any comments

I would assume it is trying to be the red hackle for the black watch, though hard to say if it is real or not.

Well the flash might be real, the paint finish to the helmet looks olive drab which would have been done post war. Most likely from the 1950's.
By the way it's a Mk4 not Mk3.

Thank you very much for opinions, I'll pass on that one.
