WWII Japanese Belt Buckle?

[camry]

Hello
I was just wondering what this belt buckle was. I thought it was a WWII Japanese Navy buckle, but I am not sure. I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks

I think you have an IJN petty officer's buckle. Check here for an example:
Japanese Field Gear - Griffin Militaria

Its interesting to see the amount of wear on the face, rather unusual imo. I wonder about its history.
