Vintage Gold Tone Square Dial Wristwatch

This item is a vintage gold-tone wristwatch designed for women, featuring a square-shaped watch head and a matching link bracelet. The watch exhibits a distinct rectangular or square case, with a black dial and a golden border. The dial lacks traditional numerical markers, instead displaying a stylized 'X' logo or design, possibly indicative of a specific brand (though difficult to determine definitively from the image). There appears to be text below this 'X' and 'SWISS' visible at the very bottom, suggesting Swiss manufacturing. The hands are gold-toned and simple, indicating perhaps a two-hand or three-hand movement. The watch case and bracelet are constructed from a gold-toned metal, likely plated, as indicated by the overall sheen and lack of overt hallmarks visible in the provided image. The bracelet is a classic link style, composed of several rectangular segments, and a safety chain is attached, a common feature in older women's watches for added security. The overall condition appears to be good for its age, though minor surface wear, such as light scratches or dulling of the gold tone, might be present upon closer inspection. The style suggests it could be from the mid-20th century, possibly 1970s or 1980s, reflecting a sophisticated and minimalist aesthetic popular during those decades. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for a fashion watch of that era.
