IMPERIAL GERMAN NAVY OFFICERS BELT BUCKLE SIZES….. ( THERE ARE QUITE A FEW).
Shown above are a range of the Kaiserlich Marine Officers buckles They range through 40mm , 50mm, and 60 mm ( there is rumoured to be a 65mm buckle but I have never seen one ) . The vast majority are actually cast metal but a very small number are stamped. When buying a Naval buckle always enquire of the seller the diameter of the buckle excluding the belt catch. I have been caught by surprise to receive a Kaiserlich Marine buckle which was a very small under the tunic type when I was expecting a large type !!! They all look very similar in close up in photographs . So make sure you ask for the buckles overall size before you buy.
