Narrative:

I was purser on this trip. Flight attendant # 8 assigned to jumpseat 1R. Outboard seatbelt broke after takeoff. When we started to reach a workable angle my flying partner went to get out of his seatbelt when the flat end of his belt came off the harness and fell to the floor. When it came time to land flight attendant #8 had to sit at the 1R inboard jumpseat vs. Outboard jumpseat due to the lack of a working seatbelt and harness for landing.
