It's sure different. Is it silver, pewter or SS?

There was a time that US Navy sailors would get bracelets like that made when they would put into port in the PI. I haven't seen something like that on a Rolex since I was a kid.

There's a seller on some of the boards that has these. Will put any military unit on it. Very cool.

It's called an Olongapo Bracelet. The soldiers during Vietnam would get them in the Philippines during the war. If someone has one if these he has probably been around some serious action. Or wants people to think he has. Very cool.

That would be a stretch, to say the least.
