There are some good fakes of these, so wouldn't want to commit either way.

Sounds like you need provenance, when buying this item.

Looks ok to me, writing is aliened and straight,looks like the older version B logo inscribed not raised, possibly had a good polish by machine, or even NOS.

I would say that the one in the original post was real.

The French wording is very crisp and metalwork around the wording is flat, all edges appear to be clean and straight.
Even the underside of clasp appears to be well finished.
