I don't have pics of the whole tunic yet--long story, and I know its helpful to have pics of the reverse insignia, but what are your opinions of the eagle, chevron and SD sleeve patch?
Good, bad, ugly?

Hello Suhail,
The insignia are all original and all very nice examples. The flatwire sleeve eagle and SD diamond are stunningly fine examples.

Like Bob said, great stuff

SD Tunic questions
So, the sleeve eagle, chevron and SD diamond checked-out as the real-deal , but how about the tabs, boards and the rest of the tunic?
From what I can tell, the tunic looks fine, but the pips and tabs look too nice, and the collar underside has material covering the stitching...no zig-zag stitching, if it has it is visible. Covering some post-war work?
I don't have a close-up of the breast area above the right pocket, but it does not appear a Heer eagle was ever present...
