I was fortunate this week to find a Josef Felix Sohne, Gablonz Rad buckle..
So now is the waiting period I loath...Four for the last week or so..
Emill Juttner, Overhoff & Cie, an Overhoff private purchase.. I will post pictures as soon as they arrive...

Again Gwar looks very nice, I presume marked JFS by the catch?

[Gwar]

I believe it is marked JFS in a circle on the back inside the "Spaten" with the last two digits of the year of manufacture..

Very nice buckle mate!...

[Gwar]

This is all I can offer until it arrives..

I'm looking at this on my phone so it is hard to make out the logo. Did JFS have a logo in a circle? It is a great looking buckle but does the buckle match the tab. I not a fan of the stitching. Looking forward to better photos.

Very nice RAD buckle! Congratulations!

Hey Kirby.. Nice to hear from you.. As allways I respect your opinions and have also been keen on your observations and advice on buckles.. I hope that this is not a stinker..
I have followed the intructions of fellow members by doing some research on these particular buckles.
I am still in my infancy as a "Collector" of buckles.. I hope one day to be a better wealth of something to the forum.. Anyway , when it arrives I will post better pictures and hopefully it will be genuine.. Again.. Thanks Kirby...G

[Gwar]

As far as I can see and based on previous threads this buckle is "genuine" the stiching is in great condition.. however.. you guys are the experts.. I will accept your findings.. good or bad.. G

Hello I did a search and found a JFS RAD EM buckle at German War Booty. JFS does have a round logo. First time I remember seeing one. It looks like you pick up a real nice buckle in great condition. Sorry if I made you question your buckle.
