John Brandon or Ade knows more about these awards than me. They'll be along soon. Stewy S

Hi John, I would prefer to see some close up's first before making any kind of statement on originality.

Cheers, Ade.

[Erich S]

Yes it's hard to tell from the photos. Here is mine to compare.

[John Brandon]

I agree with Ade, but I'm not liking the ring and the detail looks soft to the front. you definitely need closer and better pictures if you're going to spend that amount of money. It never ceases to amaze me

What drew my attention was the eyelet. Stewy S

[John Brandon]

What drew my attention was the eyelet. Stewy S

That's what I meant Stewy, but for the life of me I couldn't put a name to it. Must be my age

The eyelet should be bevelled, this one appears not to have that characteristic There were only ever 2 makers, so they never strayed from the norm

[Stewy S]

P&L's one maker,i think Deschler was the other. Stewy S
