Greetings,
I think I was quite lucky this morning to find 2 officer belts made in web. IMHO they are not fakes: obviously they have been worn, material is german, they smell old. They are not tan but more blu/grey as often seen late in the war (44 dated A frame for instance). 5 holes, no marking except size. Buckle itself is marked with RZM M5/140.
My questions are: does anybody have seen the same kind of belt ? Could it be made after the war with original material (I dont think so as BDW and DDR made their belts and pouches in leather but...) ?
Thanks for any opinion.
Regards, Pierre
