Elsewhere is my topic on the EK II from the questionable seller. He was asked specifically about the fabricated story about his clearly reproduction pin and only deleted that ad to repost it. I am steering clear of him from here on out.
So I waited, and came upon this EK I. The main eyebrow raiser here was the price. I paid $150 shipped. I believe it to be original but I can be wrong and appreciate ALL input! I haven't been tricked in several years I hope my luck continues
Left behind the EK II... EK I instead!!

Appears to be a real unmarked "20" / L/58" (miss-type, it's L/52) made example.... conforms to the example in Niemann book.

Re: Left behind the EK II... EK I instead!!
The only three manufacturers that used this reverse pin assembly are Deumer, Zimmerman, and Godet.
I disagree that L/58 (Souval of Vienna) has anything to do with the cross that started this thread.
To me, I believe your cross is a Godet, which of the three prior mentioned manufactures that used this hardware, Godet is the most desirable.

I thought it odd you said what you did above.John G. wrote:I meant to type L/52, my mistake... (from Niemanns Book).

L/52 is the correct LDO code for Zimmerman, so that completely makes sense now (for those that don't know)
