Hi! Nice stuff, but the helmet isn't really perfect. The shape of it is different from the original, which was used by Michael. Even then, good looking piece.
Well as I said, there are differences from Schuberth R1.5, which was used by Schumi in 2004. For example, RF1.5 visor has a line of rubber on. Also the visor holding mechanism is completely different. I could go on and on... To me it seems that your replica is based on Schuberth Q2 model, which has not been used by Schumi and is completely different helmet. They use only RF1 in F1.
I say this only to give you heads-up and you would be more informed! ;)
2004 China.. painted along with only a few others, by Michael's personal painter.
Obviously its not the one HE used, but its EXACTLY the same, and hand painted. Comes with Schuberth certificate and personal money back guarantee (if I do sell it, keeping it for now)
good investment you got there - what does the serpent on the top mean? Is that unusual? I never saw it before - usually he has stars on top I thought?
greaaaaaaaaat work of the painter! nice nice nice

Thanks for the comment, but uhh ?
The helmet is a genuine Schuberth RF1, just like Michael's. It was painted by Michael's personal painter, just like Michael's
Maybe its the video, or you are mistaken ? I mean, do you have Michael's sitting there with you ? doubt it !
Also, I have a photo of Michael in the car wearing his. Looks exactly the same to me.

Probably looks different because it's sitting on the HANS safety device....

Dragon Schumi - his Chinese sign !
All drivers had this done for China I believe.. 2004 was the first race. It also has MICHAEL SCHUMACHER in Chinese (4 symbols)

This is the 2004 China GP Helmet. Full replica kitted with drink hose from one of only a few painted (one for Michael, and spares)
Also shown is a used inlet valve and spark plug from the F2005 ! came in signed box
Happy to have picked up a FINAL EDITION Schumacher cap. The end of a long series..
