路路惟F InvestiGatoris it legit?
That's not much less than what a brand new one runs from suppliers.

路Probably. But $30 (with shipping) is quite expensive for a used modern buckle.

路Found this one on C24 ... suspicious - even more at that price for an 18mm.

Totally fake. The "molten" 惟 and "ACIERINOX" instead of ACIER INOX give it away.

路finally got a gold buckle for my 1970 seamaster. Now I'm waiting for an 19/16mm Italian strap to arrive to complete the watch.
it's a gold filled US buckle from around 1950ish? Not too sure on the date. Everything looks legit, so I believe it's an authentic buckle.
p.s sorry for the bad picture quality, my phone sucks!

Where have you ordered your Italian strap? I am currently looking for a special one which should refine my new Speedy.

it's not a high end leather strap but i've heard great things about dassari straps so i figured i'd try it out. here's the link to it: https://www.amazon.com/DASSARI-Hand...1533671940&sr=8-14&ref=mp_s_a_1_14&th=1&psc=1

路I happened to put these side by side together so I thought I'd share. The one on the left is a very common ebay fake.

路Today I had the chance to put side by side the vintage buckle and the recent vintage styled buckles made by omega. The strap on the right is from a 60th speedy. Just thought I'd share because I haven't seen a side by side pic somewhere.
The modern omega lookalike is not bad (better than the ebay one for sure!!!) but is a bit fatter at the top and less sharp.
