New Bahnschutz

[kirby]

I have had one of these on my top 20 want list for several years. It shows some light wear but the variant catch made me want this one.

Nice find Kirby and a seldom seen variant

[weller]

Great looking buckle, given the variant catch are these Assmann?

Glad you like the buckle. It is the one from WAF. I made him an offer as soon as I saw the buckle. He said he got a lot if interest but he gave me first shot.

[ivanjoaquin]

I'm glad you've got this great buckle to your collection
Best regards

Nicely done, Kirby! That Assmann catch is very difficult to find on a Bahnschutz buckle, as you know. Some people call this an 'experimental catch,' but it was definitely put into limited regular production. Maybe some think it's experimental because it's also seen on the prototype SS buckles from Assmann.

I've never seen an Assmann prototype SS buckle with crimp catch
