Default luftwaffe goggles

Hello,
Here are some luftwaffe goggles from OWA O.W.WAGENER. I'm looking for them...

Do you think that they are authentic and typically of luftwaffe pilots ?

What about the average price with goggle with original box ? 180 € ?







Thank you for your answers...

Fake pair IMO, originals of this maker are quite different and with thick rubber frame.
Other makers are also available in this configuration in same postwar new box with maker label.


Originals (as far as I know them) are stored in aluminum containers or card board boxes, a card board box which is different from the fake ones.
Both container and box have a compartment inside which holds several sets of spare lenses, spare strap, metal punch ..

Here's a original pair ..
