I would start by posting them individually, this is too overwhelming all on one thread.

I would also join watchuseek forum and post them individually there also.

Really nice boxed watches IMO.

Paul, what did you decide to do with the watches in regards to posting?

Thanks John, it was suggested that I post these over on the watch forum which I am going to do. One at a time.

Kriegsmarine fake Junghans stopwatch eagle

I have to check #3 and #5 but all others are terribly fake eagles!

I agree, but 2 is definitely original. Typical Junghans eagle. I have the same watch in my collection and even on my U-Jagd is the same...

What basis of info are you using to determine authenticity ?

About #2 eagle
If you have an original U-Jagd, the eagle will look exactly like the eagles on my two U-Jagd stopwatches, the eagle on all U-Jagd is the same. So pleaso look again at #2 , magnify the eagle image and notice the differences in comparison with your U-Jagd. If the #2 eagle is exactly the same as on your U-Jagd the conclusion is that your U-Jagd is fake!

Here is a picture of an original eagle on a U-Jagd Junghans WW2 period stopwatch.

Glaser, my friend! Sorry, you are right. I checked my timers again. I had another watch in mind. On my U-Jagds the same eagles like on yours but not that deep stamped :-)

[glaser]

I am happy that we agree

sir

if i understand what you guys are saying this is just your personal opinions you not using any reference books.

how can you prove what your saying is correct ?

i know were these watches came from none were bought off of ebay.

[compressore]

Using a "reference" book is not always the key....there are a lot of books describing fakes as original.
In this case it is is the experience of our collector friends..and when it comes to KM eagles, our member Glaser is (at least for me) the number one !!
Combined with afx and his watch knowledge IMHO we have solid opinions here.
