Hey guys! Just wanted to get your opinion on something.
What finish would you say the original Raiders strap buckle was? AND If buying a new one today, would you prefer a 'pre-aged' version, or a shiny new version?
I figured I'd ask the experts!!! Your input on this is greatly appreciated!
I assume that the buckles used during filming were surplus or at least pre-aged. Indy's gear was supposed to be lived in, and that means even the little metal buckles were distressed.
And for my preference, I prefer doing all the distressing myself, so new for me only if it's not SUPER shiny to begin with. However, it it's more cost effective for a pre-aged one, I'd go pre-aged.
I have not purchased from you yet Wade, but as soon as you get in those shipment of super-accurate buckles, you'll be getting a BIG order from me!
What if I offered a distressed model AND a shinier 'New' model which wouldn't be chrome shiny, but rather vintage shiny? How would that sit with you fellas?

The best of both worlds!
