Hi Havoc,

the only one I can say it's that this driving band look strange on a belgian band, era WW1.

Hi Yoda,
Many thanks for your post. Are you saying it could poss be Belgian? I admit the band is strange, well not one i have come across before. Looking at fired bands sometimes confuses me, if not simple lol. Am i right in presuming that the bands would have been one main but with two paralell raised bands on top?
All the best and thanks again,
Clive.
