The fellow in the middle looks like the Dutch Nazi, Anton Adriaan Mussert (1894-1946), flanked by Dr. jur. Artur Seyss-Inquart (1892-1946), Reich Commissioner for the Netherlands (Reichskommissar fur die besetzten Niederlandischen Gebiete), wearing his honorary SS-Obergruppenfuehrer uniform.
The photo of Mussert is from Littlejohn, David, Foreign Legions of the Third Reich vol. 2, R. James Bender Publishing Co., San Jose (CA): 1981, p. 152. The photo of Seyss-Inquart is from ed. Zentner, Christian and Friedemann Beduerftig, The Encylopedia of the Third Reich, Da Capo Press, New York: 1997, p. 872:

Himmler’s cuff title was worn by himself and the SS-Main Office Chiefs (Hauptamtchefs) and SS-Office Chiefs (Amtschefs). It was a simple silver-aluminum cuff title with a black border inset from either edge. Perhaps someone could provide more specific information on this cuff title. Except in a very general way, it is not detailed in any of my uniform reference books.
