Hi all,
TL;DR: Does anyone have any clue to when Buffet stopped engraving and instead put the metal plate with "RC" on the RC models?
I have a colleague trying to bring back to life a severely damaged Buffet Crampon RC, and one of the things he is looking for is an upper joint.
He got this offer from someone but we're puzzled about the authenticity because instead of the engraved "RC" it has the metal plate with the "RC" initials despite the serial number F355XXX.
I have a RC myself and mine is F380XXX with the engraved "RC" instead of the metal plate.
I know there is a chance the plate has been added afterwards but in that case it isn't something he is looking for, he is looking to bring it to its original state.
