From a Japanese auction description:
“ This is a commemorative medal of the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Corps, commonly known as the Sea Eagles, which was dispatched during the China Incident.”

Regarding these "Sea Eagles"
Arawashi Badges and Memorabilia/荒鷲章 | Medals of Asia
Regarding the watch fob
China Incident Commemorative Badges and Watch Fobs/支那事変記念章 | Page 3 | Medals of Asia
I understand that the ribbon on this badge is most likely a fantasy?
Naturally (ribbon was taken from a European medal).
Yes, Wakawashi /"Young Military Aviator"/ Arawashi and Wakawashi Badges and Memorabilia/荒鷲章 若鷲章 | Medals of Asia
Thanks for spotting this inconsistency Guy!
Thanks for the help.
