Dear fellow collectors,
Michael wrote in his 2001 posting: "Having a look on the plugs by which the locktubes are closed one will note that the Clejuso cuffs do not show any hammer-marks, which usually can be found on items made by Hiatt, RCS or Kayser."
Unfortunately it seems, that these hammer-marks are also no certain indication for the manufaturer. I own a pair of old Clejuso Darbies that has 8 absolutely round hammer-marks on each locktube-top. If you're interested, I'll take a picture.
Regards,
Atame
