M.u.K 5 LGAB ?

[Philippe DB]

Hi Guys,

Posting this for our friend Skip who seems to encounter some problems with posting pictures on the forum at the moment.

He would welcome your opinions on these two MuK 5 LGAB's.

Please disregard the strange looking swas on the left one. it's a replacement after the badge was denazified.

Thanks in advance

For what I see from these pics..,

the left one with the silver wreath is original ,the right one is fake...

Thanks for the reply Jos.

Is your only concern with the right one the eagle or do you see other short commings?

The right one is also missing the "sandy surface" which I think all originals should have IMO..
I've one that way..
I also think the silver color of the wreath isn't the real deal,that's why you'll find most having a "black" wreath to give it that old look..
The rest is pretty close..
Maybe close-ups will reveal more..?

i agree with Jos
the right is a recent fake imo
the eagle is the giveaway...in fact this might be the same eable that is on the RK fake...same quality
