Hi Jack,

To tell you the truth I don't like the look of this maker mark or the slider at all.

The Timings marks that I have seen have flat bottomed 'G's in 'TIMINGS' while this 'G' looks like it has a round bottom and also a poorly defined 'Hook' part to the letter 'G' itself.

The slider also looks like one from the London Badge and Button Co. Ltd. and not a Timings one.

Members who have a copy of my book will be able to see where I am coming from in my point above.

Maybe I missed this slider/mark/combination of slider and mark but personally I would treat this badge with caution.

Regards

Chris
