Hi,

interesting cross.

Screw is consistent with a Meybauer as this DRGM number and the crucifix back plate is associated with that maker.

The front.. i have a meybauer with the slanted w core. Also I did own a Meybauer with this screw setup. I'll post the pictures for you to compare. I don't think your cross has the frame as these Meybauers. However I don't recall that the wide frame incluse 800 cross was 100% pinned on Godet neither...


Best regards.
Michel

This is NOT a Meybauer.

Römisch you're not up do date anymore. Don't post something you can't halfway proof and that is only based on your own personal opinion.

Here is a Godet Needle Variation (marked: Godet Berlin) of the same type of cross. It is true, that I've seen those screwback parts only with "800" till now, but never with a Godet mark. But whoever knows what we might discover in some time.
Nonetheless, you can see, this type of cross is made from Godet. It MIGHT use the screwback parts of Meybauer (as they appear to be typical Meybauer screwback parts) but as long as it is not 100% sure I can't really accept it to be proven.

Even if you think the beading looks halfway the same, look on the 4 inner corners of the beading, next to the "W". The innerst beading is rather a big fat dot than many "stripes" coming togehter. Thats something all of those mid war Godet Wideframes share. If you watch over to the meybauers you can see, that the innerst beading area consists of 3 stripes coming togehter, while the wideframes dont have it.






As you can see, I did my homework on the Godet Wideframes.. You should also know that there are early, mid and late war Wideframe Godets, witch differ slightly in shape and quality alike.

I have spoken. Hugh.

I wonder WY the name wide frame is used here ?

i do not see a wide frame at all ?

Kraal ,what is your definition off wide frame if you please ?

In this context "Wideframe" is indeed a misnomer; I think it is used only to differentiate this frame from the more traditional Godet frame, as it indeed has the appearance of being wider. Also, since no one has yet proposed a timeline for the usage of these two frames by Godet, no one has dared assign "A" and "B," or "1" and "2" to the frames, due to the chronology this nomenclature would necessarily suggest. Perhaps in time this will come (as well as numbers or letters for Godet's other frames).

I am trying to avoid the nomenclature , as the chronology off such an act
keeps on being wider in its appearance as the misnomer off a traditional Godet
could be

in short ,,i understand
