Are Mint Wiedmann EK2 easy to find ?

[wvdparis2]

While picturing a duplicate private purchase Cased EK2 for the estand, I finally succeed reading the mm on the case : E.F. Wiedmann !

Then I am now thinking to keep it & putting a mint (sorry I am a mint cross guy ) Wiedmann EK2 in it instead of the W&L currently in it.

But are mint Wiedmann EK2 easy to find ????

thanks

Really a very, very nice and rare case -- and I agree that the maker is E. F. Wiedmann Frankfurt. It's a terrific find, Michael.

I've never seen a truly mint Wiedmann EK2. But why not get one that matches the condition of the case, or just a bit better? I think a nice Wiedmann in exellent condition would look perfect in there.

Thanks Trevor...

Not really an EK2 guy but I will keep it ! and try to find a Wiedmann EK2 in a very good condition for it (with 100% paint & no veins)

It's the first jeweller EK2 case I know being 100% associate with a know EK2 maker.

for reference, one more pics with his Paulmann & Crone brother

I think you have made a good decision Michael! You will find a cross and the two together as a set would be quite rare IMO! I doubt anyone else can show us a Wiedmann marked case!

The piece of cloth that holds the ribbon glows under blacklite? That is my one concern? Beleive me I like the case but am wondering about ti?

As you can see, the small strap was soiled & cleaned which will probably explain the reaction of black light...

the case was discussed on the case forum when I purchased it !
