Description :
Antique Art Deco ladies wristwatch featuring an ornate octagonal gold-tone case with engraved geometric and floral detailing, aged Arabic numeral dial, subsidiary seconds dial, and black cord-style bracelet with gold-tone fittings. Interior clasp is marked “1/20 12K G.F. PAT. 1,716,693,” indicating 12K gold-filled construction. An elegant period jewelry watch with wonderful original character. Approx. Measurements Range: 1–1.25" case diameter x 6–7" bracelet circumference Condition: Antique condition with substantial age-related patina, discoloration and wear to the dial, crystal and case. Engraved decoration remains visible. Bracelet shows age and use. Current running accuracy and service history are unknown; sold as an antique collectible unless independently tested. Historical Note: Small decorative wristwatches became fashionable for women during the 1920s and 1930s as wristwatches replaced traditional ladies’ pendant and pocket watches. Gold-filled cases offered the appearance and durability of gold at a more accessible price, while geometric engraving and octagonal cases reflected the emerging Art Deco aesthetic. Est. Value: 75–150
