I have doubts about this strap and buckle. Please advise on authenticity.

Fake. :( Strap is Croc with Cuir on the back. Cuir should be on a leather strap.

Thank you, I had gut feeling something was wrong with that strap.

What about deployant buckle - is it fake too?

Not a strap expert but the engraving doesn't look deep enough to me.

That's really not the engraving, looks more like etching. :(
