        On the pictures it looks very promising but I would not take it!

        In my opinion not original (one of the better copies).

        But the seller gives warranty.

            I like it. If this is a copy then we are all in trouble.

                I'm with the last two guys - I need more help in distinguishing good from bad if this case is a copy. Can the doubters please clarify the issues with this example? I have three Aufklärer cases I will need to look at all of them.

                Thanks

                    I'm no case expert, by far, but I don't like it. The pattern just doesn't look good to me. Maybe we can get Allan to take a peek.
                    If you have it hand & the insert can be removed, we can tell.

                      Sometimes it is very difficult for me to explain my opinion and the reason why it is a copy or not to put into words!

                      But ok, let me try:

                      First for me the Inlet is incorrect (wrong and typical fake-cardboard).

                      The bush-bottom is not correct and also the hinge is not the typical one what I want to see on a original case (the material and color is different).


                      now it will certainly difficult :

                      The surface texture of the original cases is different!

                      On this case you will see small square box'es by very precise viewing!

                      All in all, the whole material is very soft (more like white paper).

                      When on an original case the blue texture goes away, it comes under more gray to shine not so white like here (hard to explain).

                      It's like I've already written at the beginning a very good copy
                      because the lettering was very well done!

                      I want show you a fake case for a pilot badge, in my opinion comes from the same manufacturer!
                      On the first view it looks also promising, but look you closer you will see it is a fake!

                      Be relaxed guys, on photos, it is sometimes difficult to recognize, but in the hand it is better to distinguish what is good or bad!

                      Important is: not buy if you not sure! Unless you have the right to return.
