Looks like a perfectly good cross to me.

That is not a Floch fake. The cross is a nice original.

Has anyone seen a Floch EK I (or II) with frosted beading and polished rim? I have a Floch screwback and it doesn't have these features. I can't recall seeing images of a Floch with these features either, but I may be mistaken.

Thanks guys so far.

Well i'll think i buy this cross then.
The price is fair.

Am i right in saying that this cross should have a die flaw at the top of the 12 o'clock arm where the beading meets the rim?. I was under the impression that was the only accepted L15

You mean the small dimple on the top arm?

Yes thats what i mean, should this cross have that characteristic to be considered authentic.

Ive got a cased one on e stand with close ups of dimple. Dimple can also be found on 3:00 arm. The authentic ones will also have a longer needle then the floch needle. The floch shorter needle is the dead give away on the fakes.
