Roots Men's/Unisex Stainless Steel Wristwatch with Dark Dial

This is a Roots brand wristwatch, likely a men's or unisex model given its robust appearance. The watch features a round, dark-colored dial, possibly a dark grey or brown, with luminous hands and hour markers. The numbers '12' and '3' are visible, along with a date window positioned at the '6' o'clock mark. The dial also displays 'ROOTS' prominently at the '12' o'clock position and text below it that appears to read 'C.A.M. Water Resistant 30 Meters'. The watch case and integrated bracelet are constructed from a silver-toned metal, likely stainless steel, showing a brushed or satin finish with some polished accents. The bezel is external and appears to be unidirectional, marked with numbers at 5-minute intervals, specifically '50', '55', '10', '20', '25', '30', and '40', indicating its functionality as a diver's or sport watch. There are visible signs of wear consistent with regular use, including scratches and scuffs on the metal surfaces of both the case and bracelet, and a slight patina or discoloration in some areas. The crystal appears relatively clear but may have minor surface wear. The overall condition suggests it is a used item, but it seems to be in functional, albeit worn, condition. The design points to a late 20th to early 21st-century style, characteristic of active or casual watches.
