ss open claw belt, opinions

[Bond]

Sorry the scans are not so good, any opinions?
Is it tr period or a complete no hoper copy?
It is stamped ss 233/40 rzm, near the buckle and HEIM 90 at the other end.
Its well made, but I suspect its not original, help please.

Thanks Jbb

and the other end

opinions would be greatly appreciated.

There was indeed one maker who did manufacture open claws belts for the SS and marked them with his RZM/SS marking but this one is not it.
With the increasing prices collectors are now paying for SS leather goods, fake markings of all knid are skyrocketing!
Just a question: iDoes the buckle have any marking at all?

markings?

Hi Jean,
there are no markings on the buckle.
Thanks for your reply,
