This is a silly question, perhaps, but can anyone confirm whether or not this strap buckle is an authentic AVI one?

Sometimes the small details are the important ones!

endless discussions about these buckles - but resolved, as I've acquired some of these w/ original straps in a huge parts lot from a Breitling service company. fine for mid 60s & later, though unclear which watches it came with, assume these were optional purchases.

Thanks, Fred. So the one in the photos appears to be authentic then?
