My dad was on submarines in the 1960s, and he said they would file down large lug nuts with a diamond file to make rings like this. Not sure if this is the same, but it would be a good way to pass the time. He still wears his every day!

Thanks! For $5, I couldn't pass it up, should be able to sell the insignia for that! I guess I was duped by the patches... After a second look this is definitely an early WW2 HBT...

Another question, has anyone tried to clean one of these? It's stained up, but I'm sure they'll come out, and it smells god-awful to be honest... I'd like to stick it in the washer, think it'll survive?

Found this at my local flea market for only $5, had to pick it up, especially with how nicely patched it is. Any thoughts on era or value? I don't collect much beyond WW2...
