Strange SS Buckle marked GZM

[Jean Pierre Redeuilh]

Jean Pierre was kind enough to respond to my inquiry regarding this buckle. I appreciate his time and information about the buckle. I sent two photos to him of it, perhaps he can post them on this thread for me as I am unable to do so.

What value would you collectors place on these GZM marked buckles? I am also curious as to what the GZM mark may mean. I know the RZM system is pretty well documented and understood. Could these buckles have been subcontracted or made in an occuipied territiory or perhaps make for some of the non germanic SS units later in the war? Any thoughts?

Could GZM mean Gau Zeug Meisterei ? First answer my buddy gave me, when I just asked him.

I've recently come up with one of these buckles, seems people are still undecided as to whether they are real or not,, any more thoughts?
