    Left one is a well known copy and the right one seems to be ok, but better images are needed to verify.

    Best,

        luft buckles

        Watch out for the one on the left it is well known copy with C catch on aluminum from the 70's I had SS just made like it. One on right if in aluminum 4 tab is Luftwaffe parade type buckle. Looks like tarnished aluminum but it shouldn't be steel. timothy

            buckles luft

            Well I guess that is possible HJ ones later in war were zink cast I have not seen any Luft buckles in other that Alum and Steel. That one appears to be first pattern Eagle, If orig could be a hard to find one. I don't know I personally have never seen early one like it if it is zink. but never say never timothy
