Opinions on EK1 please.

[peterwyndavies]

I have seen this EK1 which I am thinking of purchasing, but the maker's mark 3 seems larger and heavier than I would expect, leading me to thinkk that it is a fake. Could someone please advise/ Thanks.

Here is the back.

I apologise for the picture.

makers mark ( not that clear )

It's a little bit suspect for me.

The number design and the clasp are untypical.
Please make a close up from the number and a pic from the complete backside.

Can you show a full reverse picture? The thing that caught my eye besides the catch was the pin, but you can't see all of it.

I agree, the pin looks odd, and even with this pic the maker mark seens odd.

Based on these pics I would pass...

Best regards,
Ben

Hi William,
Thanks for your opinion. I decided to pass on this one. Incidentally, I was wondering if the maker's mark was completely wrong or are similar marks found on genuine items?
Thanks,
Peter.
