Imperial dunkelblau Tunic ID

My first foray into the Imperial forum. Any thoughts on this waffenrock. The schwalbennester I do not think are Imperial. But perhaps I am wrong. Can post additional photos if needed. Many thanks for taking a look!

The litzen are not original, maybe the shoulderstraps too.

Thanks

Many thanks for the comments. I will sent the tunic back. Any comments on the schwalbennester? I think these are Third Reich SA - the tresse does not look like any imperial pattern I have seen. Most imperial nests I have seen are of the straight, ribbed pattern.

Thanks once again!

Apart from the wrong color litzen (silver buttons silver litzen) they look fine but not for this tunic, as for sending it back, if you just want a good tunic, take the Garde embelishments off and you have a sound tunic, how are the schwalbennester fitted? if the tunic was a musicians it might be worth getting the correct ones..........

Schwalbennester

Leibregiment - thanks for taking a look. The swallows nests are the removeable type which secure via 5 hooks to loops at the shoulder seam.
Do you believe these are Imperial nests?

Thanks,

Shawn

Swallows Nests

Paul - will take some photos by the evening. The reverse fabric is black wool and attachment is standard - e.g. 5 hooks. FYI, the buttons are gold. Thanks!
