Tudor buckle

Anyone have a pic of a correct buckle for a ~1950 Tudor, small rose? Thanks.

They are right.

The first dedicated, "Tudor" buckle had the shield logo.

Rose logo should have a "Rolex" crown buckle.

I had wondered about this for my Tudor from 1949. A number of people think it was probably sold with a Rolex buckle. See here:

I bought mine from this seller, here is another one!
