The M1913 GDC arrived few days ago and it is now next to its brother or cousin.

M1867 vs M1913

One with stepped visor and more of a doomed shape. Also there is a raised reinforcement ridge at the rear of the crown.

Earlier version is marked GKR 2E while the later version is marked as G.K.R. 1915

My M1867 version has three slots for the looped wappan to go through while the M1913 version uses thread and nuts system.

Looking at them makes me really admire the design and workmanship.PhotoRoom-20230618_171941.jpgPhotoRoom-20230618_172024.jpgPhotoRoom-20230618_172051.jpgPhotoRoom-20230618_172111.jpgPhotoRoom-20230618_172136.jpgPhotoRoom-20230618_172156.jpg

I don't want to have your problem so I got all my parcels to be sent to my office so that I leave work with it.

Also for security reasons, I never disclose where the collection is kept.
