Fashion Pendant Watch Appraisal

Saxony Gold-Toned Circular Watch Pendant

This item is a circular, gold-toned watch pendant, approximately 1.375 inches in diameter, indicating it is likely a smaller, elegant timepiece designed to be worn as a decorative accessory. The main body of the pendant features a textured surface, exhibiting a radiating, ribbed pattern that emanates from the central watch face, giving it a sunburst or engine-turned effect. This pattern is interrupted by four polished, triangular sections evenly spaced around the perimeter, which provide a contrasting smooth finish and break up the texture. The watch face itself is small and circular with a light, possibly bạc or champagne-colored, dial. It displays Arabic numerals at the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions, with simple batons or markers for the other hours. The hands appear to be gold-toned and relatively thin. The brand name "SAXONY" is clearly visible below the '12' marker, and "SHOCK-RESISTANT" is printed near the bottom, suggesting a degree of durability in its mechanism. The crystal covering the watch face appears clear with no immediately visible scratches or cracks, although a slight reflection prevents a perfect assessment. At the top of the pendant, there is a small, ridged crown for setting the time, and at the bottom, there is a decorative, possibly silver-toned or white gold-toned, bail or loop, indicating it was intended to be attached to a chain or bracelet. The visible condition suggests some minor wear consistent with age and handling, such as faint surface scratches on the polished areas, but no significant damage or discoloration of the gold tone. The construction appears sturdy, and the combination of textured and polished surfaces suggests a thoughtful design, likely from the mid-20th century, possibly 1950s or 1960s, a period known for highly decorative jewelry watches. The craftsmanship appears to be of decent quality for mass-produced jewelry of that era.
