Hi there. Just brodcasting a listing i have on ebay.co.uk for a ww2 German kriegsmarine Sailor cap.

It has Kriegsmarine eagle and cockade with an Admiral Graff Spee Tally.

A superb reproduction.

You can find it easier by searching my User ID which is bayern_boi

Starting bid at £20.00 or buy it now at £21.00 and I will ship world wide. P&P will change of course.

Here are some photos of it.

Sorry but this looks like a ripoff
But this cap is pretty much a contemporary standard issue german navy enlisted dress uniform cap with an eagle and a swastika attached.
The cockade is today's german, not WW2 german, gold-red-black, it should be black-white red.
Also, the Mützenband should read "Panzerschiff Graf Spee", not "Schlachtschiff"
They haven't changed for 100 years or so, except the insignia and modern things like plastic labels.
I have the same model from my service time, only without the eagle and the swastika, of course
:rotfl:

My point being your last part: it's not accurate. I took a look at the second picture and nearly burst out laughing.

Reproductions, let alone of the "superb" variety, are supposed to be accurate...
