·I read the Omega buckle thread but still cant determine whether this buckle I bought for 50 bucks from eBay is original or not. Could someone take a look and help me out?

·Looks like a legit modern buckle. Shown in the first post of this thread: https://omegaforums.net/threads/about-omega-buckles.37347/

·I think it could be a new generation fake, especially since it's from eBay

·The sun logo and the text looked off to me as well, if you share the seller it becomes more apparent, fake sellers have a lot of buckles to sell from a lot of different brands

·I may be way off base with this comment but here goes. Correct me if i’m wrong.
Dan S’ buckles use shoulderless spring bars because the spring bar holes go all the way through the buckle side wall. The OP’s buckle’s spring bar has shoulders implying that the buckle side wall has no holes.
This no-hole buckle is typical of knock offs commonly seen on sites such as AliExpress, the Chinese shopping site and home to all kinds of fakes.
For this reason and those stated above I am dubious of the authenticity of the OP’s buckle’s spring bar.
FWIW

·Well you debunked my theory, but it was fun while it lasted.
Best wishes.
