Well, since my last post I have found a nice belt that has no exposed metal buckle parts. It is manufactured by Red Cap Industries in the USA from top grain cowhide for use in the automobile maintenance field where a buckle that would scratch a car's finish shouldn't be worn.
It is available from many suppliers, but I got mine from Automotive Workwear, Inc. They have an online store and the price is quite reasonable and the belt looks like any nice black leather belt. Look for scratchless buckle belt or no-scratch belt on their web site. These have a nice flat face of leather with no exposed metal. Two hooks on the back fasten the belt. The finish will get rubbed off the belt by the guitar (and that's OK) but a bit of shoe polish takes care of that.
