The one infront of my Br44 ( art.no: 86214 ) sells for about 6.50 euro. ( 2 pieces )

There is another more simple looking ( art.no: 8627 ) sells for 4.50 euro ( 2 pieces )
Of all of what its said, I am quite happy with them. At least you do not see a chunk of model coupler of any kind, be it Kadee or tension or whatever brand.
Be sure to use them in rakes you do not want to uncouple.

Thanks for the pictures Erkut. Are they specific to era or loco type? I wouldn't mind getting a few sets of those.
Where did you get your from? Modelbahn Kramm say they will source items but don't have prices for many Weinert items.

Unfortunately, even in Germany most Weinert parts are all backorders. However said that, I got mine from:
http://www.lokpavillon.de/shop/
...and is available.

Thanks Baykal. I'll give them a go.

They are expensive but not frighteningly so. They are as close to scale as I have seen in a ready to buy coupling.
They uncouple and couple using a manual hook. Not autocouple but still fun to use.
Appearance is excellent.
...and that's what you want. They do look very good.
