Luftwaffe Buckle 1942

[Von Ritt]

Greetings! Just curious about this one. Can make out 1942 and oval lines. How does it look? If good, who is the maker please? Thank you for your time and help.

Best Regards,
Von Ritt

Looks like a good buckle produced by F.W Assmann from Lüdenscheid.

Appreciate your help. Please, would you be so kind and share with me how you made that determination. I didn't see his signature 'A' stamped on buckle.

The year 1942 is stamped on the leather tab "outside" of the elliptical maker stamp, which on your tab, is mostly worn off. Common on Assmann buckles. Most makers the year would be "inside" the elliptical stamping.
