    GWL U boot: ok?

    I know there are some good gwl u boat fakes out there hence putting this up for review

    someone has messed with the reverse; stamped initials on top of the MM

    I think it is a good worn piece however would like to hear what others think

    cheers in advance

      The MM with "P" and "C" stamped into it.

      apparently the initials of the original owner

        Original badge

        Shame that someone decided to stamp his initials PC into the maker mark. I guess he didn't want that sub-mate with the initials GWL claiming this one to be his ...

          Interestingly enough, I've seen these same overstamped initials on a GWL LW badge (Pilot, P/O? can't remember). I think this may be a third party retailer stamping their own initials on them, rather than a sailor doing it.

          I hope you already have this one on hold Dave!!

          Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

          If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!
