Jaffy Jurado Olongapo Bracelets

Post by sierra11b » Thu Feb 21, 2019 5:43 pm

Decided to buy a custom Olongapo bracelet from my srp777 from Jaffy Jurado after having a little too much to drink. Hope it's nice! :lol:

Anyone have any experience with his stuff?

I hope it all works out as there's not much room for error on fitment. Wasn't cheap. :pray:

Got infantry cross rifles and master parachutist wings above them at 12 o'clock and the USA Great Seal at 6 o'clock

Was a JM for about a year but not a master by a long shot, BUT I thought it looked cooler with the star and wreath and filled out the bracelet with a little more ornate detail. Figure some non-UDT vintage rolex guy is wearing a UDT bracelet as I type this so I'm not worried.

Also figured I could at least meet the bracelet half-way in terms of rate and pay homage to those master wings I've seen on some 11S Olongapo bracelets I've seen.

More importantly, what were you drinking to make you want one?

For those interested the clasp has two size settings which are about 1/4” apart.

I don't get the joke? Is this an old guy bracelet? You're older than me, btw.
