Hi Mike
in my opinion cross # 1 and 2 are early Steinhauer & Luck (have you checked core if it 's magnetic ?) and cross # 3 is a Deumer.
P.S. nice crosses !

Some very nice crosses, Mike.

Here are my opinions.

S&L '4':



S&L '4':



Early Deumer '3' with first pin:



Mid-period K&Q '65':



A better photo of the frame would help, but I think this is another K&Q '65':



Possibly a Mayer '26' but again, a better straight-on shot would help. Also, Michael or Fabri or someone else may be able to confirm:



I'm interested to hear others' opinions, too -- especially about the last two.
