Horseshoe Charm Watch Appraisal

Geneva Platinum Gold-Tone Horseshoe Charm Cuff Watch

This item is a Geneva Platinum brand women's cuff watch, characterized by its prominent gold-tone finish and decorative elements. The watch features a round case with a bezel encrusted with a single row of clear, round, faceted rhinestones or simulated diamonds, giving it a sparkling appearance. The dial is made of a white, iridescent material, likely mother-of-pearl, providing a soft shimmer. Gold-tone Arabic numerals, ranging from '12' at the top to '5' at the bottom (with '6' visible), mark the hours, while the intervening hours are indicated by smaller, clear round rhinestones. The center of the dial prominently displays a gold-tone horseshoe motif, also adorned with small clear rhinestones, acting as a focal point. The watch hands are gold-toned and simple in design. The brand name 'Geneva PLATINUM' is printed in black letters below the '12' marker. The watch is attached to a wide, rigid cuff-style band, also in a matching gold tone, suggesting it slips on rather than buckles. A distinctive feature is a small, rhinestone-encrusted horseshoe charm dangle attached to the watch case, adding a whimsical and decorative touch. The overall condition appears good with minor wear consistent with use; some slight discoloration or dullness might be present on the metal surfaces, although this is difficult to ascertain definitively from the image. It likely falls into a contemporary fashion watch style. The craftsmanship suggests a mass-produced item designed for fashion rather than high horology, utilizing decorative elements to enhance its aesthetic appeal.
