PeteM Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Its a thumb nail.... Early OP PreA...later ardillion buckles were single screw Over priced yes but rare nowadays..... Still worth more than current gen... I hope you dont see a gen PreV buckle.... you will be doing cartwheels over that price!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeSentier Posted November 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Just incredible...just a small piece of steel.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 (edited) The A series buckles go for anything from $250 to $450 on Risti... I cant recall seeing them for more than that,,, A gen Pre V buckle would be around a grand up... These were thumbnails style not tang and 22mm....the straps are good money too...

projectologist Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Just incredible...just a small piece of steel.... I've held small coins worth over 20k, and they're small pieces of metal as well. Welcome to the world of collectibles. Value is TOTALLY subjective.
