Great question.
Genuine USA bands? for sure. Genuine south American bands? For sure! I would love to know if these bands that we see that are marked like this are genuine. Especialy the gold ones. They look so "Right", this has bothered me for a long time |

It's original. The crowns were pretty lame on their bands. You probably can find Hecho en America for the same price - which would be JB or C&I.

Err buddies...gees...is that where they made those strange looking clasps
n bracelet...in Mexico? Orchi last seen these type of bracelet in Japan....years back...n everybody thought at the time those were not genuine...!  Guess Orchi has much to learn about these bracelet too...apart from the US made ones... No worries though...we got Maestro Springer on our side to teach the necessary...about these odd looking bracelet stuffs...
