Never seen it but I like it.

There is a Spanish Cross with this style setup. It is made by Peltz??? or something like that. Ask up in the crosses forum.

Hello Andy,
Definitely an original, but I've never seen one with a maker mark. Quite possibly made by Petz & Lorenz of Unterreichenbach. The hinge also reminds me of the type used by Dr. Franke & Co. of Lüdenscheid on Assault Badges. You're right! The pin and hinge is just like the type used on SA Sport Badges. I have a SA Sport Badge by Petz & Lorenz in my collection. I will see if it has the same type of catch.
Best regards,
Tom

Hello Andy,
Here is the SA Sport Badge by Petz & Lorenz.

[Tom Yanacek]

Here is the catch. Similar, but not an identical match.

[Darrell]

Wow. That catch is a 100% Match

L/11 did use the same hinge too.

L/11 did use the same hinge too.

Are you refering to the abnormal L/11 BWB Andreas?

I would not use that one as a comparison in this case since there are unanswered issues with those BWB´s.

W.Redo used a very similar hinge type on their Sportbadges though.

Berg and Nolte as well

Hello Hans,

i don't know if L/11 with this hinge is abnormal because i saw some of them at dealer sides in the last months but the feature another catch and a smaller needle.

Did i miss a discussion on the L/11 badges?

[Hans N]

Well they have been discussed several times.

Hello Hans,

thanks for the links - i missed those threads

I have no problem with that hinge on the L/11 WB. Imo a classic award setup which was used on many badges like the SA Sports badge. From the overall setup the discussed badge is a match to the posted Petz & Lorenz sports badge.
