Here are some hopefully improved photos of the above buckle, taken in natural light and w/o text to better illustrate the details of this buckle. The measurements are 2 1/2 inches wide (left to right), 1 7/8 inches high, and the buckle stands 5/8 inches high (when laid flat on a table, face-up), from the widest part of the base to the face). It is one piece, stamped, and although apparently inconsistent w/ the finer details of originals, is of good overall quality, i.m.o. I've as yet not encountered another replica example of its type, however the general consensus of feedback I've received was that it is consistent w/ the configuration of a maker of TR series replicas.
