Is this a real Rolex band?

Hello! I am a first time poster and was hoping I can get some assistance Identifying a watch band. I hope I am not violating any forum rules and if I am let me know and will glady remove/move my post.

I inherited this band from a relatives estate and he wore rolex. I understood that the timepiece was destroyed in an accident and as you can see this band was badly damaged.

I have two questions, is this a rolex band? It has no markings to indicate so.
If it is a rolex band, since it is damaged, does it have any value other than its intrinsic gold value?

As you can see it is stamped with "750" for 18K gold and there is a "H5" stamp which I do not know what it means.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

...hmmm...

...NOT genuine Rolex.

...however, take the band to a competent jeweler and have him scrap it for you.

...assuming real 18K, there should be about 2 ounces of gold.
