I love that bracelet.
This was covered in a topic I started a few months ago. It seems the 'bracelets' are modified clasps from this company.

Did this information come from someone who had a hand in making the props?

The collar from Unleashed was a vintage ski binding.

I don't think so.

It's just those clamps are metal and would require a lot of grinding and modifying. The details are very different at the hinge, surface and inside which would preclude casting in resin and further modification.
I believe that it probably started as a clamp or banding of some sort but I think the original source is still unknown...

Yeah, I was never sold on the clasps pictured (in the link). They don't look at all right.
I've felt it was a custom piece, possibly incorporating a sport watch band--but was hoping there would be some breakthroughs/additional information about the bracelet. It's a killer piece.

Just watched this last night and was itching for the bracelets and tri-keys...

Has anyone ever gotten closer to this? I found a Shapeways that was hella expensive, but lacking the "ID" element, which, let's face it, is the money part.
Ya, that shapeways model is the one I made. I also made the "ID Part" which I can email to you if you get one of the shapeways models.

Cool! Do u have a pic of a finished one?
I only printed it in FUD so far. But I plan on printing a silver one soon. Either that or brass and then nickle plating it.
I have more photos in my thread http://www.therpf.com/f75/island-id-bracelet-3d-printed-diy-kit-form-214781/

Has anyone found a way to have the bracelet display area backlit like in the movie?
