I'm still wondering if this is legit or not, I always have my suspicion... marked 14k twice and on the clasp, has a middle tag saying peru on one side and pat pending on the other. Has a marking of BBB in a triangle form. Same as this one on ebay,

weighs 12g though. What do u guys think? I've cut into the link with a knife and it appears to be hollow but solid.

A sure sign is if it's laser etched 14kt. Most of the ones with the etched mark I've seen have been fake.

The link did not show a picture so I did an Ebay search. The marks on this bracelet are stamped. You can tell because the letters are thicker. A laser etched one they look etched with a diamond point or laser and are very thin like a very fine needle on chalk.

Wow thanks for the tip! Good to here and when I took a loop to it, the links appear hollow and square shaped
