Shouldn´t the makers mark be on the other side?

No, not necessarily. Was just comparing with other 36/40's and they all have it on the same place.
thanks for the info, always learning more here!

I'm looking at this on my phone so it's hard to tell much. Measure the buckle. My notes say the fakes are around 63 mm. Originals are around 65mm. I have an original and the runes are in a single circle.
Hi Kirby, thx. I've just red a topic where was also told that originals have there runes in a single circle.
But other threads also say Original for buckles with there runes in a double circle.
I was looking at German Warbooty's website and found these links:
SS EM/NCO's Belt Buckle by "RZM 36/40 SS"
SS EM/NCO's Belt Buckle by "RZM 36/40 SS"
These are the only 2 exact buckles I've found in the archives page.
I saw also 36/38 buckles and they are all with a single circle around the runes.
But the 36/40 buckles all have double circles.
I should of said they haven't started faking the single circles as far as I know. It is my understanding there are original and fakes with double circles. You have to be more careful with the double rings.
Okay, I see. I'll wait for Ben's opinion. But he's not gonna be online for a week or so.
not expert but it looks good to me,sharp detail where theres no wear.
