Bigwull i am confused now was looking around on some sites and found this page 8 pictures of marks down is the exact hallmark for my bracelet but it says not identified ? i definately thought it to be henry walker but the H.W and anchor and lion are exactly the same as mine only thing different is the year mark but you cant see mine good enough to know if its same or not....so now i'm not sure at all.....:(

Sometimes,you can look too much.......lets look at it this way
1).It is silver
2) it is hallmarked
3) It has a Birmingham mark
4) it is in good cond,
5) it may not be worth enough for you to retire...but its a nice little bracelet...just enjoy it...
