Thanks again for your indulgence. Here is one more. Fewer pictures I'm afraid.

Thank you. Based on the similar clasp on this one reported to be from NSA, I suggest you are correct about the bracelet.

Actually, you are completely correct. Here is the same bracelet with NSA branding.

On the Navi's strap , we can see that the clasp spring is broken . It is quite easy to source a replacement spring from some NSA straps specialists in USA .

Be careful with this one...
It was for sale on eBay. I had bought and paid for it. PayPal refunded my money due to sellers account issues. This happened twice. Sellers communication was terrible. I then gave up.

I have also seen it for sale at auction house.
Probably legit, but be careful.

Thanks for that information. I guess the auction house puts a buffer between the watch and seller, but I will take care.
