I have tracked this down. If I can secure it, it would be my ultimate KVK1.

It looks genuine enough to me but it always pays to get opinions...

Looks like genuine item to me. That should be one of the rarest KVK1. Remarkable piece, really.

One of those items that just radiates perfection. Beautiful patina, no excess wear and tear, and a rare maker to boot. If I was in the market for one of these, it's one I'd jump on in an instant.

That is a very nice, original C.F. Zimmermann KVK Jamie!
Very uncommon, and definitely an accepted variant. The condition is superb as well.
Congratulations on finding this and adding it to your collection.

I've never priced these. What do the typically go for?

[Franjo Vuk]

That is highly overpriced and overpaid. None kvk1 should not be even close to that amount.

Agreed, a good example of someone with too much money wanting something that no-one else has. Good luck with the resale... in 50 years time
