Lorus Melody Mickey Mouse Watch Appraisal

Lorus Melody Mickey Mouse Watch

This is a Lorus brand 'Melody Mickey Watch' featuring the iconic Disney character, Mickey Mouse. The watch features a round, gold-toned metal case with a white dial. The dial prominently displays a large illustration of Mickey Mouse in the center, with his arms serving as the hour and minute hands. The hours are marked by red Arabic numerals at the 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions, while other hours are indicated by smaller outlines of Mickey Mouse's head. The watch face also has 'LORUS' printed below the 6 o'clock position. The overall aesthetic is playful and characteristic of Disney-themed memorabilia. The watch is attached to a brown leather-like strap, which appears to be in good condition. A notable feature on the strap near the watch case is a gold-toned emblem of Mickey Mouse's head. The watch is presented inside its original white Lorus box, which declares 'Disney Character Timepieces' on the lid. Accompanying the watch in the box is a pink slip, likely a warranty or instructional leaflet, partially visible with 'QUARTZ' and 'RUTZ' (possibly 'Lorus') printed on it. The watch appears to be in new or nearly new condition, showing no apparent scratches, wear, or damage to the case, crystal, or strap. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for a character-themed quartz watch, focusing more on the novelty and licensed branding. The watch is a quartz movement, as indicated by the visible paperwork. Given the 'Melody Mickey Watch' designation, it's possible this watch plays a tune, a common feature for character watches.
