Re: Buffet Crampon RC - When did they stop engraving "RC"?

They added the metal RC badge to them around the time or maybe just after the logo was changed. The ones I've seen with the new logos and silver plated badge have the plain six digit serial numbers without the F prefix.

What with the extortionate price of a replacement badge, they really ought to be handmade of solid gold instead of silver plated nickel silver castings. I see the same Buffet Legende badge is also being used on Powell Legende flutes - I dread to thin how much a replacement Legende badge is if the Prestige ones are anything to go by:
