Are these markings on the bracelet correct for a 6917 Late 70's? Aftermarket isn't it?

Thanks

Not sure about what to think about this "JB" marking. I believe it is an aftermarket bracelet, but I hope others will chip in.

Done some research, some bracelets were made in the US/Mexico many years ago, soemhow the markings on that one don't match up with photos I've seen. I'll have to pass on this one I think. Not much help was I

There were certainly bracelets made in other countries, USA and Mexico as mentioned, but I'm not familiar with those markings.

If this is the bracelet (pics from your other thread), then I think it IS an aftermarket bracelet:

Links are rounded all the way around and the endpieces are too long.

Yes that is the same watch Bo.

Huh, not often I can find something that the pros haven't seen too much of.
So it looks aftermarket, yet the seller says original. It's always somethin'.
