KM-SPAIN

Back detail.

Back.

Hello all, this are my two u-boat clasp, and both looks ok. The first is made in zinc and the second in tombak. I need one in silver like the Gordon's onces.

All the leather uniforms, with the long jacket, used by the surface unit were the same that the used by the u-boat crews, but as all KL white cap is from a u-boat kommandant, all grey leather uniform is from a "grey wolf". The price is not the same.

No problem with them for me Richard, I have a complete uniform from that maker.

Hello, I agree with Gordon, for me is a postwar cap also.

Jonh, thanks a lot for your good reaserch. For me is one of the nicer a more rare instruments that I have had.

John, thanks for your information. I think that it is an instrument to correct the navigation drift of the boats, and for that reason I believe that it is a navigation instrument, although does not mark the position.

Here we are, the admiral jacket with the VERY VERY RARE!!!!! admiral trousers. I'm like a child with his new toy with it.

No body has any Kriegsmarine fieldgrey cap or uniform to show us. I can not belive that I'm the only one member of this forum with them in his collection.

I have just found a grey-green trousers with the wide blue side-stripes to complete my admiral jacket, I thought that find this one could be inpossible, but with time (and money) you can find everything. I will post pictures as soon as I'll take them.

Hinrik, I have the link to the picture, thanks.

Rick, thanks for your information, a long and intense history for this small ship.

Clock now runs perfectly afther the perfect work of one of the best watchmakers of Spain than requested to Junhans some original pieces to repair it.

Thanks a lot Hinrik, first one is a really nice picture, and I will take it. If you find a cap tally from this ship you will be the best.

Thanks again.

Hinrik, the 15 cm were of the secondary guns of the main ships, but the Holland guy who usually brought this things to Spain no longer comes here, so in future I( hope to find some other Kriegsmarine shells.

Here my Kriegsmarine flak 3,7 and 10,5 cm. Some time ago I tried to buy two different 15 cm rounds but finally I couldn't, I hope in futere I could be able to find more.

Hirik, Ihave looked for information about this vessel for a long time, but until now the only thing that I know about this small ship is that it was the "Flottentender Hela" until 30/12/1938 when was renamed to "Flottentender Gazelle", I have no pictures of it.

Hinrik, great history. I hope that you can find the gun this summer, and you can put it in your museum with the EKs.

Hello Hinrik, for me both are OK.

Dial detail.

I would like to show you one of my collection favorite items, a ship clock with the name on the dial, "Flottentender Gazelle". It has a Junghans movement.

Hello all, I think there is not a list about Kriegsmarine uniforms makers, at least in my years of collecting I have not found it. I have seen many unforms and you can find many different makers on them, the private and the officials.

The officials were only two:

1- In Kiel: with blue letters on labels "OFFICERKLEODERKASSE DER KRIEGSMARINE KIEL" or "MARINEOFFICERKLEIDERKASSE KIEL"

2- In Wilhemshaven: with black letters "OFFICERKLEIDERKASSE W'haven"

The private were many, the most usual are:

1- Armin Ketelsen from Weserm?nde, Cuxhaven and Bremerhaven.

2- Th. Th?l from Kiel.

3- Wilh Witte from Kiel.

4- J. Robrech (owner Hans Thiele) from Kiel.

5- Friedr. Driemeir from Kiel.

6- Albert Streich from Wilhemshaven

7- Niemann & Lappe from Kiel.

8- Lafrenz & Kroll from Kiel.

and many more from Cuxhaven, Hamburg, ....

I hope this may help you.

JUX is for the N.V. Nederlandsche Instrumenten Company (Nedinsco), in Venlo, a little town in Nederland.

Hello Hinrik and wellcome here and to the Kriegsmarine/U-Boot collecting world. About the stopwach, is one of the most nice and rare that you can find, but I think that it was used only by u-bootjagd vessels and not by the u-boot.

Wellcome again and regards.

Eduardo

Thanks for your opinions, finally I'm going to take it out of my collection.
