SB EK1 opinions please

For my own interest I've just gone and picked out my Imperial Meybauer screwbacks and scanned the DRGM screwdisks to compare construction to the one above on the left. Scans attached.

The screwnut on the left is the one from this cross , Jesse it dosen,t seem to bear any cast marks ... The Screw to the right is from a good Meybauer .

aim looking at the DRGM and 653146 off the two discs

they're actually exact the same

the left one,,
these numbers and letters are not smaller ( if they are ! ,we are screwed good)
so no caste copy manufacturing attempt

the characteristics off the numbers and letters are 100 % match to the right disc

its a fingerprint copiers will not copy this perfect in my opinion

its an original to me ( just smaller)

O , and I wood rely like to see those non maybauer fakes mentioned earlier one .

i was waiting to see it happen ( now that these screws on ebay ) that some people wood try to combine the screws with cheap non maybauer ek's
(making it some kind off variation and fool some people)

but real serious maker maybauer fakes I have seen until now,,, non

a suspicious prinsen yes,,,,but that is al until now

I think it is in the interest off all collectors
