This is a great war time example made of stamped steel. It is typical of the Oberhoff firm, and is unmarked. I think it was worn about 5 times, and has an overall perfect look. This one is a real winner for you anal retentive guys.
This is right out of the woodwork in Dallas It shows good honest use and some age. Still, is a very solid and honest example with nice markings. This is a great example if you fear replicas!

This is a great belt. It is the type worn by SS officers with a circular buckle. The condition is really solid being only a very tiny bit dry. All the stitching is very solid. It is marked 125 as being a very large size. It only has one of the original black leather loops, but otherwise is just great. These are a tough item to find, and is overall really nice.
No, I haven't lost all of my mind. The very first SS buckles were just SA buckles completely nickel plated. The SA did not use belt buckles that were all nickel. In any event it is an early brass piece with the nickel being still very good. These are really tough to find, but most people have never noticed these rare belt buckles.
This is the rare youth version of the last pattern Stahlhelm Bund belt buckle. The front is green painted, and has 90%+ of the original finish. The obverse has some old rust, but no problems. It displays very well, and as a really tough on to find.

This is a really attractive set. The buckle is the later war universal black/blue painted buckle. These were designed to be a buckle that Navy and Army troops could use.

Overall, this is a really nice set. The end to end length with the buckle on, is 41 inches. 
This is a good honest combat veteran. It shows honest age and use, but is still attractive with approximately 70% original green paint. The the reverse maker marked 41 dated. The tab still retains a good green shade. I would call this a true Afrikakorps belt buckle having the web tab with a 41 date.

This is a true tropical belt, an the tongue is also web and not Leather. It is a good large size. I have seen a few of these available, but always super small. It is marked 100 (cm), and is a really honest used, yet nice example. This is my last one available in a large size.
This is a tough to find navy example of the standard tropical belt. It is a light brown color which is standard for the Kriegsmariene. The condition is basically mint. End to end measurement is 32 inches.
This is a really good example. the detail on these aluminum buckles wears very quickly, as the metal is soft. This one has very nice detail still in the face and body.

For that reason it is a universal Army or Navy belt buckle, and is perfect for your late war tunic. It is painted a dark blue which is mint. This is a classic unmarked example.

This is right out of the woodwork form Warren, Michigan. It is a light duty 1st mod Luftwaffe buckle, which is a tougher one to find. It has super nice detail and is just a great buckle. It was really dirty and nasty when I bought it, so I cleaned it with soap and a tooth bush. The belt is a nice dress example lined with grey wool. Overall, this is a very good example dress belt to go with your early Luft tunic.
This is right out of the woodwork from a local picket in Metro Detroit. It is just the way it came out of the vet's basement. The buckle has good detail, but does show honest age and use. The belt is very solid and without problems, but also shows some age. I have not cleaned this set and leave it up to you to decide if you would like to clean it up a bit or just leave it the way it was found.
I feel guilty selling this one. The buckle is a nice and honest early Luft 1st pattern with sharp detail, but the frog is great with really nice markings. It is Flak Rgt marked with a battery number. It is further LBA or Luftwaffe clothing depot marked and maker marked & 1937 dated.
This aluminum Luftwaffe buckle shows some use and age, but is a nice example of a WWII piece. The detail is still good, as is the overall construction. The nice part is the 1939 dated and maker marked tab. Overall it is a nice original piece.

This is a great buckle. It is a standard Luftwaffe steel buckle factory painted a dark green for field use. I have seen them referred to as tropical, but I am not sure that is true. It has 95% nice original paint, and shows only light use. I had 2 in my collection, and decided to thin out a little bit.
This is from an old collection. It is a nice original blue steel Luft buckle with a very small amount of tan tropical paint. It looks like the entire buckle was tan @ one time, but most has fallen off over the years. Wow, I wish it was all there. But, it is what it is. It has some rust on throughout, but is still a neat piece.
This is a tough to find version of the DJ belt buckle made in a miniature size. It is in very nice condition showing some light & honest age and use. The reverse is marked RZM 50.
These are really tough to find with the experimental catch. It is a nice aluminum buckle with good detail. It has no problems, and is ready to display.
This is the 1st HJ buckle I have a seen with this type of catch. It is Asmond marked and 39 dated. This is definitely one for you belt buckle collecting whackos! It is 100% original and completely un-messed with.
This one dates from the 1933-1934 period. It is logo marked and maker # 17 (Asmond) marked also including the patent pending (Ges. Gesch.). The detail is wonderful. The green stuff on the face is just the natural material that is caused by brass held against leather. You can clean it off if you like. This is a very attractive belt buckle.
This is a good example of the one piece SA buckle. It is unmarked, but a no brainer in terms of being original.
These small SA buckles are hard to find. It is of the 2 piece construction, and with a nice even patina overall.
This is a very nice JFS made 1939 dated GES GESCH , or patent pending DRK buckle. It shows super crisp detail, with the eagle looking like it is ready to fly over with it’s razor sharp claws to administer first aid to some enemy of the Reich. It is just perfect, sorry I have no bad things to say about this one.

This is a very solid early example of a rare buckle with belt. the buckle is a nice nickel example with original tab. The belt is a wider (48mm)early version, made of solid leather. The tab is named to several previous owners. An almost identical buckle is pictured in German Belt Buckles 1845-1945 by Peter Nash. I recommend this book strongly to German belt buckle enthusiasts, and send my compliments to Peter Nash!
The buckle is a very sound example with nice maker marks. the belt is made of late war paper made to look like leather. The belt is very sound, with only fold spot, but is still very sound. Size Medium
These were only used from 1930-1935, and are a little on the tough side. It is 2 piece, and in really nice condition.
This is from a local picker that found a small quantity of original belt buckles. It is not one of the current very good replicas. The finish is the original factory finish. Everything about this piece is correct.
This is a very nice example of the standard leather political leader's belt and buckle set. The leather is in really nice original condition, without any bad spots or damage. the buckle shows sight age and use, but is very attractive. It has only one of the loops, which is typical. Overall, it is a really nice set. 
This piece is a sound example of the political leader's buckle. It has a nice gold wash which is showing a little wear on the edges and high areas, but still displays well. It is nice and solid, and has no problems, except is has only one keeper, which is typical, as the other one was sewn to the belt.
I bought all three of these from a WWII Vet in the 80th div. He was there for the occupation, and said a kid asked him if he wanted to trade for some belt buckles. He answered in the affirmative, and when the youth produced the buckles they were just the way you see them here. In any event, all are original and good for a display. If you are a politically correct thinker, that is looking @ my site carefully so no one catches you, these buckles are for you. They will display well next to your copy of Das Kapital, by Marx. Sorry, I went off at the left. Sorry, the HJ and Luft are sold. The other 1 is still available.
