Store > WW2 German Helmets > Waffen SS > M35 62 Relic Helmet Reproine
The shell is a genuine Model M35 size 62 helmet with replica parts. The first seven pictures shown its found condition and the remaining pictures show it restored and preserved. We call this a Reproine (REPROduction/genINE) helmet.
Perfect for:
- Displays and Presentations
- Filling a gap in a collection
- Comparison against other helmets
- Gifts and commemorations
This helmet is a mixture of Reproduction and genuine parts. The helmet had all its thick soil and rust removed. We then filled the major holes with metal filler - we have left some small holes for effect. Then we applied the decals and fitted a genuine m35 62 liner band using reproduction split pins. The helmet was then sealed with preservation oil and wax.
In summary the shell and liner band are genuine WW2 period and the decals, split pins and chinstrap are all high quality reproductions - suitably aged. The shell is solid but be careful not to drop it as you could knock out the metal filler.
The helmet was found in 2003 in one of the 'big digs' in Berlin, Germany. A 100% genuine version like this would still demand over £1000+ as Waffen SS M35's continue to rise in price.
