When I read "dip" I thought you had tested whether it was waterproof or not.

But, by mistake.

Nice finds!

HH!

If you don't see a 925 mark on the stud earring, then it is likely not silver, although the makers mark has me a bit stumped, since Junkers are usually just blank. You can run your AT over it and see where the ID comes in.

It was kind of a test. I submerged to the whole unit under water

Well, I'm still a bit hesitant to make the test. I don't hunt much in the water anymore and it's been working fine on the ground. I'd hate to screw that up.
I did do a creek back a while ago but only up above the coil. Funny thing though, much later on I happened to notice the rubber around the cable going into the coil had sort of spread out. No leak but, there were some gaps around the top of the grommet. I did a bit of further water proofing, just in case. Didn't like the look of that opening. Looked like a ready made funnel for moisture to run down the cable, right into the coil.

Anyway, good job!
HH!
