Default The Black Watch

Hi all,
I'm always looking to check the authenticity and period of use of my few badges.
Can anyone tell me if this cap badge and this title are very authentic and help me to date them, please ?
Thanks in advance,
Marco

The cap badge was worn from the mid 1930s into the late 1950s.

Thank you very much, gentlemen.
So the badge may have served during the second WW and the title rather during the first.
Is there no doubt for you that they are authentic? I mean ... there's no risk of falling on a copy?
