Take a Qtip and put some Formula 409 on it. Rub it on the bracelet. If it turns yellow or brown it is bakelite. If it does not, it is regular plastic.

You can hot water test also, run super hot but not boiling water and put bracelet under water for a few seconds (15 secs) quickly lift and smell, if it smells phenolyic which is kind of chemical its likely bakelite. Regular plastic and lucite doesn't give off the smell. There a hot needle test but I never recommend it.
