WW2 Pattern German Navy Officer of the Watch Metal Badge (Wachmannschaften Abzeichen).
WITH SLIDER

Stamped in brass, and then gilded. This badge is in excellent condition with a little bit of minor toning.  It has 2 lug type fittings on the back.

This insignia was established during WW2. There would generally only be one or two of these for each vessel, or shore facility and these would have been transfered between crew members as they went on watch duty. They were not issued to individuals. In the reference book "Torpedos Los!" by Gordon Williamson (published in 2006), this badge is number 124 in their list of insignia. Worn on left breast.

These badges are offered elsewhere on ebay for hundreds of pounds, but,  because we have managed to purchase a small quantity in Germany, we are able to offer these at a very reasonable price.  We also have a few of these badges with a lug fittings instead of a slider -  please see our other listing for this type.


The insignia measures 52.0mm x 65.3mm, and weighs 16g.
