    I recently snagged this gem from fellow member Kyle. I was wondering if anyone could point out an example of a period-correct buckle.

    I think this is an original period-correct Omega buckle.

    It did not come with my Ref. 2627. I purchased it separately and had my watchmaker "dip" it to make it pink gold to match the capping.

    Hope this helps,

    Is it coming from Argentina?

    if so, please ask Ulackfocus. He bought a couple of them I think.
