The Luftwaffe who can tell by manufacturer?

[Makalash]

Hi guys ! The question is for the buckle manufacturer !? The fact that she is an early experimental buckle is understandable. Who can tell by manufacturer?

It looks to be the same maker as my example.

Nice buckles, it seems that the maker is Assmann
I have one in my collection, the added leather tab had a different maker stamp

It seems to me a little wrong ... maybe I'm wrong about that. Look at the reverse of the buckle - he's bald without "shagreen" and the muzzle of the eagle with his neck - looks like a snake.

Yes, you are correct, it is different.
I'm sure there were more than two makers that made buckles like this.

unknown maker (the tab is marked JC Maedicke 1941 so not for this buckle added at some point?)
Hello Ben ! Then most likely the second example is your buckle in this thread. Unknown manufacturer ... Thanks for the hint.

Hello Ivan ,

by honest it is not a Assmann . It has a totaly other design .

Here i will show only the real Assmann design .



Here a real crank catch Assmann, not the smal ears.



Often on the early leather tabs are marked with only the tab maker and date !
