I do not know NTZ,
but the manufacture is nice, and the insigina is 100% fake great janke, but yes the inside cap is more fake, because the Plastic diamond is too new, but this cap in 20 years....
Sometimes it is not easy. The first thing to look for is a reverse twist. That would be a post war German cord. Next are the sliders in the knot. Plastic= fake. Chromed metal=fake. Zinc, brass and aluminum might be period. Look at the string used to tie the ends if you can see it. Yellowed or no. UV negative or no. Then in inside core of the strands. Post war ones have plastic cores. They are a bugger to figure out sometimes. The flexibility and actual billion materials can be a clue too.
$20 and you are on your way. In fact I have an extra I will send you for free. It is an older silver one and would go great with that insignia. I just hope that doesn’t get caught up in customs too.
