WW1 British Navy Cap ?

[tony75]

Hello
What are your thoughts on this Cap?
I was thinking British or German?
The buttons are marked on the back( wien Austrian maker ?) I can not make out the rest.
Possibly civilian?
Thank you very much
Tony

Hello

Hard to read the buttons, all I can make out is ( 14 Wien)?
Hard to get a good pic of the buttons without breaking the thread.
Thank you
Tony

It doesn't look at all like a British Naval cap. But the best clue is the button itself, the crown above the anchor is no British King's or Queen's crown and looks more German Imperial and "Wien" on the back surely is Vienna.

Crown is not the type that would be used by the Imperial German Navy. But does look like an Austrian type.

Looks Austrian to me.
