Erel or fakers ?

I'm afraid the fakers... too bad a real Erel had to be sacrificed for this...

[steiner68]

it must be very hard to change farben/color, but not impossible.

you are 100% sure that is a frankenstein ? (because my friend don't be happy to know that...). he don't collect anymore general items because too many fakes...

Hi Marcello,
I don't see any problems with the fact that Kappe could have been a reseller of Erel visors....
This double markings is not a red flag at all IMO, on the contrary.
