Colt bezel help

Hey I found this watch online and it is the same Colt that I have except the bezel is different. My colt is the A73380 and my bezel has time markings in intervals of 15 minutes. I like that this one has intervals of 5 minutes and want to know if this is a bezel that came with the watch or if it is borrowed from another series? I'm thinking of finding one and swapping mine...

Doing some research, it looks like a men's 38mm colt ocean bezel installed on a regular colt chronograph A73880...Can anyone confirm this?

Yes that is mine. So it seems like the bezel on the one i pictured above has 5 minute increments all the way to 12 O'clock position. I like that better, was wondering if they can be interchanged, and if a particular series has that bezel. I haven't had much luck finding one, but it seems that it was on the 38mm Colt Ocean models...All colt chronograph's that I have seen don't have it except for the one above and one other that i saw recently.

Here is mine it's not the chronograph, but the bezel it's from the older models like mine it's from 2005
