    Aurich Luftwaffe steel buckle

    Hi All..

    Were the LW Aurich steel belt buckles only made with the small catch feet..?? I have a Aurich belt buckle with a wide catch and the feet are angled outwards. It has a leather tab dated 1942. I can't find any photos of this type of catch feet. So I'm suspicious about my buckle...
    I'm not able to post any photo, so any help wil be appreciated....thanks.

    Hello,
    the Aurich mark is on the buckle or on the leather tab?
    You can use a images hosting site to post the pics, for example:

      All of the Luftwaffe Aurich buckles I have seen have the short angled feet (towards the center). Would like to see this example.

        LW photos

        Hi
        I have tried to upload 3 Photos of my LW buckle. Try this link and see if it Works for you: http://tinypic.com/a/37bm1/2

        I am suspicious about the prongs, the catch and feet and the details on the front with the eagle. I don't think it looks like a Aurich.

        Please give me your opinions about this buckle, thanks...

        Flemming.

          These one Luftwaffe buckle is not Herman Aurich from 1942.
          Leather tab is replaced.

            You're correct about it not being an Aurich buckle. In fact, the buckle itself is a fake. The tab is original, but it was sewn onto a fake buckle in order to make it look more authentic.

                Hello,
                agree with Belten. Sorry, fake buckle upgraded with a good tab
