DRK buckle

[Brumbar]

Hey guys,
Picked up this buckle a few years back. Can anybody confirm or deny the authenticity of this one?
Thanks

I am not a big buckle collector and have no books on buckles, but to me, this looks like it could be Swiss?

Cheers, Ade.

Hi all,
it is a DRK buckle. This design pre-dates the TR style.

Yup......It's German pre-TR. Here is my example for the sake of comparison. I've also seen some with a gold roundel. Not sure if I've ever seen one-piecers. Only two piece buckles were made for the pre-TR DRK.
Nice buckle!!
Cheers!
