I can't help you with cuff titles, but nothing wrong with the other stuff. Nice eagle and tabs.

I am not a big fan of the construction of the tabs (too much extra - and badly folded - cloth on the rear, backing material seems off, piping attachment sewing is very sloppy and visible from the front), and, as mentioned before, the CT is for an NCO, not an officer. That being said about the tabs, however, there are many examples which are perfectly real but which are not perfect.

Sorry, but I am not liking those tabs at all. Especially the details on the back. I just looked at a collection of Luftwaffe tabs over the weekend which was up for sale. In there were some bad HG tabs, but also some very nice ones. The quality of the wool and details on the back were the key.

Very true. Many collectors would accept tabs like these with other branches, but are more critical when it comes to HG.
