May I suggest that you have a very close look at the two quite excellent and very important "sticky" threads started by Ben as:-

Buckle and belt characteristics, originals and fakes
and
Rogues gallery

Images of the buckle that you intend to buy or have actually bought, would be appreciated.

Regards,

David
