And I just found this one online. It looks off in some way but I don’t know for sure. Could someone help me verify it, pls

No space between “E” and “G” looks suspicious.

and I think the font is wrong. The "S" should be more flat. The logo MG looks pale.The smoothness of the surface is not good enough. The legs of Omega logo look a bit short.

The MG logo should not be flat at bottom should look like this photo on left

I found this online… is true or false? I have a doubt because I've only seen buckles with the sun above the writing "swiss", not on the left. Are the lettering ok or "coarse"? Thank you in advance

I pulled a NOS strap out of the original packaging and found out I had an new orignal buckle that I did not know about. This will look great on my new (to me) Constellation!

I found this one today. It looks ok but the Acier Inox seems close and the MG symbol lacks the line above (part of the pentagon encircling it). So do you guys think it’s good or not!?

Hi folks - wondered what you think of this one. Legit?

My only concern is that the 'C' in ACIER looks awfully like an 'O' which made me think it may be laser etched...

Also, this is 14mm inside measurement. I wondered if this would be suitable for an 18mm strap, or would this tapering look odd?

I think legit. Some people express concern when there is not clear space between Acier and Inox. But this is a smaller buckle less space to work with. And there is variation where text is placed. These are not like dial fonts precision.
Fat springbars and logo look good to me.
You will need to get custom strap for this taper I don’t see 18/14 straps so this is consideration. But I think it would look ok

Legit?

IMHO, yes, maybe a bit polished. Still legit to me though.

I think one giveaway for fake buckles is the detail on the Omega emblem itself. There doesn't seem to be the clear beveling on the fakes I've seen, more of a glob or perhaps over-polished.

Can anyone post an image of what would likely be the correct buckle style for this f300Hz piece? I can't find any original advertisements showing what they came with.

This one attached to my Seamaster F300, 1972.
