    Second one is correct style, but I can’t see any detail on the hallmarks.

    I have no clue on the first one, other than I thought that UK gold items needed a full set of hallmarks, which I don’t see here.

    Hi experts!

    Can somebody tell me, are the buckles on the picture authentic? And from wich period? The seller say it's from an old closed watch maker.

    They are correct, probably from the mid to second half of the sixties.

    If they were mine, I would probably try selling for 20-30 € a piece. But you can find them for twice the price on eBay. I haven't conducted a "sold items" search, though.

    Thanks, gatorcpa! You are quite right, but I haven't been able to find any other candidates at that price level. And I am 160 posts short of posting in the WTB forum :)

    So are they fake or not? I’m a total newb on this subject.

    Just bought a 1959 Seamaster Chronograph and really want an original buckle that is contemporary.

    Where should I look? Is this seller legit?

    This SS buckle was delivered to me from a certified Omega dealer in 2004. If @Aryen ’s is fake, what about mine? I agree that the "B SWISS" is sharper and more well-defined on mine.... 7B92751C-993B-4434-BB62-11AE89CAC7B4.jpeg AE037919-22C7-4D70-BD29-1A1148A110B9.jpeg

    You can get these modern ones (previous post) off cousins uk too. I asked my AD if I could get a 16mm wide buckle for the strap of my chronostop.

    The AD said he would have to send it to Omega to get the correct size and it would take eight weeks even though I new the width..... ::screwloose::
