Original German WWII Political Leaders Brown Leather Belt With Open Claw Belt Buckle 115cm
A scarce and desirable original WWII German Political Leader’s leather belt, complete with its correct open claw style buckle and RZM M5/289 maker marking.
The belt is constructed of thick, high-quality brown leather, typical of NSDAP political issue. It shows honest period wear throughout, with a rich dark brown exterior patina and a well-worn interior consistent with age and use. The leather remains supple and displays an untouched, original appearance.
Fitted with its original aluminum open claw buckle, featuring a fine pebbled finish and functional dual-prong fastening system designed to engage the double rows of holes along the belt. The reverse of the buckle is clearly marked “RZM M5/289”, identifying the manufacturer under the Reichszeugmeisterei system—adding to its desirability and confirming period production.
The belt measures approximately 115 cm in total length and retains multiple adjustment holes. The buckle tab stitching remains intact, though showing expected age and wear. Does not come with a leather belt keeper, which we believe it might have had it at one time.
Overall, this is a solid, original example of a German WWII Political Leader’s belt with a correctly marked RZM buckle; an increasingly hard-to-find piece, especially in honest, unaltered very good to excellent condition.
