Hi there guys , bad news the cuff was sold under my nose for 1525$ . Shame shame , but thanks for the help on this one .

Good news: next time those 25 USD will maybe help you to get the answer faster and get a bargain, or to avoid fakes

If you want to have a shot at an item at an auction like ebay, you cant post any guiding information here. The snipers have their rifles out and will hunt for your prey. It has happened many times in the past.

In this case it might not have been possible because it was so openly posted on ebay. A good cuff title at a fair price, but not a bargain price. If it is a real uniform removed one, I think it was a bargain price. However, the stitches at the joint ends was a bit strange, and no other visible holes from being sewn on to a uniform. The way of the cut spoke in favour for a war time sewn together cuff, but again, no visible threads or holes to be seen on the pics that can really tell it has been worn during the war IMHO. Could have been a cuff used for studio shots as these were not at all times actually attached to the sleeve.

More cuffs will come for sale, and they seem to be a lot cheaper right now than 2-3 years back. Time to shop is now...
