That type of Buckle dates very early for your side of the pond, provided it's Bronze and not stamped Brass...hard to tell from the pictures, over hear it's called a Double Looped Oval Buckle, and dates Circa 1500 1650...

Yes, I agree about the buckle age, median age 17th century. Nice find. The brass plate with holes and thingies could be part of a very very old clock movement.
