Hello,
I have a 2 piece aluminum buckle like yours. I've only seen 1 other example of this kind of buckle because I hear they are quite rare. If you have a chance to get it, I would. But that's coming from a FJ/Luftwaffe nut. I like mine, it goes good with my FJ, who is mostly early-war gear, oldest piece on him being his helmet, a M40. Or I guess maybe his rifle, a 1941 Luftwaffe stamped K98. Hope that maybe helps? It's always good to know there are other exmaples of things out there.

The buckle pictured above is original.

Has eagle wear exactly where 90% have it. Nice to find in any condition.
