Need some opinions on an SS visor

[Geof]

Guys

this is not for me, visors are not my bag baby! But a friend asked me for your opinions on this visor.

Thoughts? Votes? If it's wrong, what are the giveaways, so I can help him.

Thanks

The "Eagle" insignia seems to resemble the common pigeon head fake!

One-look Alteste. Both badges are bad too.

[Geof]

Yes, understood the badges are bad. What about the underlying visor? What does älteste mean beyond "oldest"?

Alright, that's clear. It's a fake by Alteste. Great ref thread by the way. Thanks all.

Classic textbook fake.

and its kind of cute how there is a sweat inside the lining so looks really used at some point.

Clasical fraud !
