New 35mm DJ buckle

[Erno]

Here's my new 35mm DJ buckle, from a dealer named Dan Kelley. Does anyone know who the maker is?

Nice Erno!

Thank you! I remember that you have a Steinhauer & Lücke DJ buckle with a similar catch. Perhaps they also made this little one.

Just took a look, similiar but my catch looks a bit thinner. Let's see what the experts say

It is definitely thinner! These DJ buckles are really hard for me to identify by maker, since there isn't as much to go by as there is on the buckles with eagles. The rune variations are a lot more subtle. For example, the rune on this one seems a bit thinner than a lot of others.

Straight ears too. Early Berg and Nolte ?? Kellerbach Meyer & Franke ?? It is just a guess for me.. Nice buckle !!! G

Thanks, Gwar! I never considered Meyer & Franke, but that is an interesting idea! The RZM 1 buckles used a similar catch, as did Berg und Nolte.
