I have a Kenny Bracken old cuff. Would all know why the inside of the cuff has this discoloration? Is there anything one can do to fix?
Thank you all for being so helpful. I have found out many answers to various questions given this forum.
Really the best group of people on this forum.
Thank you for any information.

It is probably discolored from wearing-sweating, lotion, dirt. Just take a Sunshine cloth and clean it if it bothers you. The cloth will polish it up.
If you want to keep the patina and don’t mind getting your fingers dirty you can simply rub the dark areas off while leaving the grayish patina but it does come off onto your hands. As Islandmomma said, a sunshine cloth will take it all off back to shiny new silver in no time at all if that is what you want.
Actually that was the first thing I used to try to get the back all polished up as in the front - but to no avail.
Just seems discolored but not polishing out.
Thank you for your advice.

What does the front look like?
Thank you again for your advice, input.

I’m not a silversmith but I’m wondering if they are heat marks from attaching all of the bezels that never got buffed out. Maybe someone more knowledgeable will jump in and give us their opinion. Beautiful cuff!
It is merely tarnish, not from the soldering process.
It can be removed, as others suggested above.
Wear it, it is gorgeous!
