I have these two badges in my collection. One is a pilots badge and the other a combined pilot observer.
The pilots badge is a CE Junker Berlin SW and the Observer is JMME.
Are these genuine?

The first badge marked JMME I belive is wrong it shut be IMME and that make the pin system wrong to.. I can be wrong
and the second badge looks also wrong, the eagles on boat badges looks odd to me also
I agree with Nordland/Danmark.
I'm not by any means knowledgeable on these badges but I wouldn't be comfortable with either of them.
The eagle looks like the same eagle on both badges - the type attributed to FLL - yet they're from different makers, neither FLL.
The hardware is the same on both badges, again different makers and certainly not what I would expect to find on badges by Juncker or IMME.
See below for a genuine FLL pilot badge and compare the eagles. Bear in mind this is a late war zinc badge and the details are a little softer than on tombak examples but you should be able to match alot of details between my badge and the two above. Note also the hinge similarity.
Hopefully some other Luft collectors can give you further definite opinions.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Thanks for your help they are still nice badges though, and are very well made. I am happy with them all the same
