The box is correct Rene (Can you pm me with your phone number again please, I'll give you a ring......we haven't chatted in ages mate....nice new awards by the way !!!)


Your friend,

PS I'm not so sure about the cross ????? I have no idea on these, but I don't like the slanted 800 mark ???

IMO both are fakes. I posted pics of one of these cases not too long ago. The case is fairly convincing from pics but when in the hand it's a different story.

Hi Rich,



I'm not sure on the box, you'll have to guide me on these as I'm not so conversant on them as youself, I thought this one looked ok ? Rich can you post pic's of the fake you have please.

But I think this box could well be ok, and not the fake ?

Unfortunately I had a clear out recently and deleted the pics I had taken. This thread will have to do :

I am by no means an expert on cases and only base my opinion on the fake case I recently handled.

To me, it looks the same... same covering and LDO stencil.

Do not take my opinion as gosple as there are many more members here with more knowledge than I on SC cases.

Hi Rich,

No good greif man you've a good eye, I learn't alot that day you took me around Leed's........I'm a novice, and I trust your opinion as it's always valid with good reason. When I next buy a helmet, there are three guy's I'd trust and you're one of them !!!!

Here's Jacques example of the fake box, I hope you don't mind me re-posting the picture Jacque. Which I believe was the same as yours Rich ?

Rene's posted box

Note the signature of the LDO, and the outer covering.......not fake in my opinion.


I apologise for my ignorance, but I can't photo edit or what ever it's called and put them side by side, is it possible that one of you guy's could do this please

Sorry about that.

René is the interior in the case lose?, if so look for stamps like nr KB or nr D&B.

I think that will help some if its stampt, and also have some off that Horse black glue.

If it's LDO it will/would be KB.
