You got it right, more or less, but the time period was a bit off. It was more like George the third, rather than Victoria.

In the Royal Navy, what were " seven seas " and who could wear them ashore ?

Correct.....!
A man could have his pay book "noted " to show that he had been in all seven seas, in his RN career. With that he could properly press his bells, with the normal " inside out ' vertical side creases, plus the 7 horizontal creases of the true " old salt " .
