It seems as though buckles are like buses, you wait an age and then 2 come along. I was struggling to find a steel Heer buckle in good condition with a maker mark and date. Was pleased to pick up a Heer ESL 43 that ‘ticked the boxes’ last weekend, then had another look on the web and found this one, and ordered it straight away. Hope you don’t mind me calling it mint!
