... and here an original SS Officer Overhoff 36/39 Type 2.
Note details on the back and compare those to the fake one (old fake 1st Generation) posted above.

Where do you see that the officer's buckle is a "fake"
can you elaborate? thx
Jean, welcome to the forum, the Assmann is a very nice example, thanks for sharing.
I'm sure i won't be alone in saying your knowledge, along with Ben, will be invaluable to this forum
Thanks
Those ones are very easy since they were the first generation made in CZ Republic (before 2000 when the 2nd generation appeared on the market). At that time, fakers had a major problem to duplicate correct crimps (#5) to attach the main buckle body to the bask disk (#1). That part (#5) tells you right away 100% guaranteed it is a CZ reproduction from that period.
Note: The photo below is of course showing an original buckle (Overhoff 36/43). Numbers were added to allow better understanding with my terms. Here again you can note how crimps (#5) are shaped.

Hi JP and welcome to the forum, nice to see you sharing your expertise with the forum
Ben
Thanks...this is well elaborated..I must say that the only difference
I saw first was those crimps, but I thought It had maybe been errors when attaching them. I was wrong..Those copys are very well made I must say. Happy that i didn't bought it
Am I the only one who is questioning these brand new lookin buckles.. No offence but the perfect RZM tags worry me alot.. Am I the only one getting a bit paranoid w posts like these?
