Hi all. I'm on the lookout for a nice sub badge and since it'll be my first, my question is...although Schwerin is the premier maker of this badge I'm not too struck on the eagle, so what, in your opinion is the nicest looking sub badge. I'm thinking 'Funcke & Bruninghaus'.

Hi Peter,
Schwerin may not have the sharpest looking eagle, but the gilt finish on their early tombaks can't be beat IMO. Those unmarked Juncker are very nice overall as well.

HI Gary...that's the oneOriginally posted by mrg View PostHi Peter like this one
Some great sub badges there and you're right Tim, the Zimmermann's also one I'd go for.
Actually i have to admit the Schwerin's quite nice as well

As far as design goes i think Juncker is now my favorite followed by the Mayer/Zimmermann/Schickle type.
If i was ever to add another U-Boat badge to my collection it would be a Juncker.I really like the "bold" look of the eagle on these awards.
