Hi Chaps.
Is this real? It's got a great finish to it, one of the best finishes to a wound badge that i have come across.
Would appreciate your opinions.
Cheers
Mark

Cheers Ade. It has a lovely finish to it, one of the best i have come across, that's why i had my doubts. Can i do anything about the vertigre or is it best left as?

Hi Mark, it is best removed as eventually it will pit the metal. A wooden tooth pick and olive oil wil do the trick.

Cheers, Ade.

Cheers Ade. I'll have a go at that.
Best regards

In my opinion, this is not original. This set up is very similar to Hymenn SWB's, but that catch was always on zinc variants. I also don't like how the hinge fit to the badge.
