Kriegsberichter der Luftwaffe Cuff

I saw this cuff at a respectable dealer, but these days one has to be carefull. So before closing the deal, I hope there's somebody out there who can give me some info on authenticity and market value.

I can't truly say if its a good piece or not as I've never handled one before, but based on the neatness of the embroidery, (nice, straight and consistent) and overall quality, it looks very promising to me! Rare!!!
and if the dealer is respectable that's also a good sign! If he gives you a guarantee on it, you have little to loose! I like it a lot!

This piece looks very well made, but I honestly couldn't tell if it is real or not without actually having it in my hand. Because it is the enlisted, as opposed to officer, version, my GUESS on value would be @ $750-850.
Best,

Thanks for taking a look guys. Still not sure what to do, but time will tell....

I remember having seen that one dealer in the States is selling one officer's version with a Kreta preliminary document for around $900.

Like I wrote earlier I like it. Now I'm at home looking in my books and here it is !
