SS Marked Black Leather Belt ????
Hello Forum Members, I was cleaning behind my desk and found this belt, I do not remember ever seeing it before. But it must of came in a collection I bought and fell behind my desk as I was sorting it. I am always leary of pieces like this marked SS and with a RZM. The finish on it is high gloss. Was anything like this ever produced. If not I can take it, I have thick skin.
I just want to know before I toss it in the bone pile.
Thanks to all that respond, I will REALLY appreciate any opinions.
Jack

It's an officers belt ...
Markings are very faint to tell ...

Strange alignement of the makers-mark??? Never seen it this way.
Looks like 9/38 but very faint in this picture.
No idea if it's a good one, but I have some doubts.

Ok Guys let me retract this, now I realize why I had set these belts to the side and I might have to repost this seperately. The first belt, does look like a SS officers belt. (I do not know if it is authentic) but it is unmarked.
I got the 2 belts confused, I axually did not even see the markings until I took the pictures and looked at them on my computer. ( I really must get my eyes checked, and I am being serious) but the RZM markings are on the rough out belt pictured below not the the original belt I posted in this thread.
Now it makes sense why I had set them to the side. I do not know if either buckle is correct. The first one posted looks like a REAL SS officers buckle with keeper.
The second one looks like a combat style belt with keeper.
Now I have included pictures of the RZM (close up) and will ask you again if their is any chance on either belt. The first one posted has black thread in the stitching and the second one with the RZM and SS RZM 9 (or 19) 38 does not even make any sense to me. Does it too anyone else. I just want to verify that this is a real belt that some jerk has monkeyed with before I do something with it. Both belts were bought in a very large buckle collection many years ago. I do not have any money in them, I just want to know if either belt is right. I am almost certain that the last one posted is not right.
But I have been wrong before, I just do not keep up with anything SS and have not done so in MANY MANY years.

In 1938, on the belts should be made of aluminum hook .. IMOComment

The EM belt is a late war quality , not even sure if it's a good one regarding the quality ? Restamped to add value .
The OFF belt has exactly the same manufacturer code ? very obvious already...
The quality is for a post war one , restamped to add value .
