I kind of got the pilot badges to go along with my two issued pilot watches. One badge is from after the war probably soviet? But the first badge at top is the one I just added to the collection. These are hard to find the ones made of silver with makers marks are really hard to find so settled for this one that some pilot had tome craftsman make in the field out of zinc was told around 1944 maybe made in France. -

Here is a photo of the back of the Longines with issue marks military property with issue numbers and an issued Eterna with issue marks on case back from the Czech military. Sometimes on the Eterna they will also have cross cannon mark on the lugs of the case plus issue numbers on case back. You can look at these and think about these pilots who left their country to fly for the British and carry on the fight after their country was invaded by Germany. -

I am not a fan, in fact we have a similar (if not exactly the same) example that we are selling as a reproduction. https://militarycollectorshq.com/store-catalog/ols/products/reproduction-wwi-german-imperial-battle-flag-item-7719 -

I am not a huge fan of the ink stamps, as these can be easily added to a flag to make it more presentable and believable. The U-29 ink stamp could be for a U-Boat (29). There were a boats designated U-29 (WW1 boat was sunk and all hands were lost on March 18, 1915) the WW2 U-boat U-26 keel was laid in 1936 and during the war saw seven war patrols and was decommissioned after the war and scuttled in May 1945. I am very skeptical of this being the connection though to the U-boats. I specialize mainly in Third Reich era flags and this is out of my wheelhouse but again I am skeptical about the ink stamps as many original flags have been destroyed with fake ink stamps and markings. Just my thoughts.. I will have to more research on the flags/ink stamps on Imperial Flags Best regards Leigh
