reminds me of my issued agency police gun belt where you slide the belt through loops in the back of what you place on the belt, in this case the boxes and the belt buckle. If you look to the box on the right and see how it goes through a slot in the back of the box, I would imagine something similar on the back of the buckle, but that is pure speculation.
I know what you mean me neither my friend.
This vader project kills me sometimes with the small things.
I wish i could learn more and make my display more accurate, no near to perfection, just above the average.
Once i saw on a pic that the belt buckle has like a rivet behind it, but this other pic is confusing. Is like another piece of the belt behind. Is like the belt was put together using 3 pieces.
All im saying is that i know someone that knows this stuff could share some light and help out if there is no bother.

The screen used belts had a hook and loop on the back side of the buckle.
They attached in the front just like a traditional western style belt.
See second example down on this link:

The buckle was fixed firmly on the front of the belt and these belts fastened at the back , I have this from Dave Prowse himself and Sandy Powell his stunt double , who's DV stunt suit I have.

With all due respect, the information you were given is incorrect.
All the screen-used belts for all 3 original films attached exactly the same way.
Also, the same goes for the tie pilots, imperial officers, etc...
The appearance suits (not counting the screen-used originals that were used at times) were different in many aspects to the screen-used components.
Assuming the item you have is genuine in the first place, which without seeing couldn't confirm/deny.
