How do you call this clasp?

Here is my formal dress badge. Name of original reciever is known.
I choose a small size photo not to give to much details away.

Felix,

There are things in life so ugly, that they become beautiful...
And I think the formal dress badge is an example.
The first time I saw it, I had to think of some piece of biker jewellery.
But the longer I look, the more I like it.

Kinda same thing I had with the Allach Julleuchter.

Now I know where to search on, I found another German name for the badge, posted in a mail from Donald Abenheim: SS - Gesellschaftsanzug badge .

Thanks for the picture you showed.
Can I ask one more question about the Clasp That Should Remain In Fog?

Is it ok to conclude there were several makers, or was there one maker with several designs?

Look at the pic below to see what I mean:



Best regards,

Aha!
I am beginning to see the light about the adjusting system!
Thanks Sayle, no further questions asked.

Great picture by the way!
