Re: Unmarked Nickel SS Buckle
Just one point to note looking at other Cracked wing SS eagles it appears that this one is different, I wonder if all three versions of this buckle had a different eagle? Any other opinions from anyone who owns one of these? Maybe David will comment or even JP when they read this thread. Andreas where are you? I am sure you have a comment to make my friend

Re: Unmarked Nickel SS Buckle
Dear Ben
I have 2 of these "cracked wing" SS buckles and unfortunately, neither of the other two within the family which you have alluded to.
Jean-Pierre is of course the authority on this one.
When comparing the buckles that I hold to yours, the difference to my eye at least is really quite striking.
Perhaps I am missing something here?
Regards,
David

Re: Unmarked Nickel SS Buckle
Many thanks David, I have been looking a pics of them and I thought they were not the same, I have been looking at the marks left by the folding tool and comparing them with a couple of early nickel HJ buckles but nothing really identical. I even had second doubts and thought it might be a fake but if it is it is the best made fake ever!!!

Re: Unmarked Nickel SS Buckle
I have now seen another one of these buckles with Ges Gesch on it. Chad Wiliams has a HJ buckle with the same flat ctach, I have asked him to send me pics of the side on the buckle so I can compare folding tool marks, may give us a clue to the maker!
