    What do you guys think? Is this a good Osang zincer with good finish? Hope to have a new topic for discussion posted soon that I have never seen discussed here before.

    I think, its an original Osang clasp.

      Hi Richard,

      Looks very good to me as well, no doubt the clasp itself is original.

      No so sure about the finish though. Its odd that the finish looks to be covering the rivet on the reverse, that is a bad sign IMO. Also, its weird that the finish seems to have faded from the catchplate. Typically its the opposite; the finish fades from the clasp first but usually sticks around on the catchplate, so that is suspect as well.

      Do you have this clasp in hand? If so, can you verify if there is finish on the rivet? If there is, then I think its refinished. If not, then I think the finish is probably OK.

      If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little
