Super Techno I-5301 Watch

The Super Techno I-5301 watch is a men's quartz chronograph wristwatch featuring a gold-tone case and a cream-colored leather strap. The round gold-tone case is accented with a pave-set bezel, densely adorned with small, clear stones (likely cubic zirconia or low-grade diamonds, given the brand's typical offerings), creating a highly reflective surface. The watch face is white with gold-tone Arabic numeral hour markers at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 12 o'clock, with a larger '12' at the top. The '11' is notably absent, likely due to a sub-dial. It features three subdials at the 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions, indicating its chronograph functionality. The brand name, "Super Techno USA," is visible below the 12 o'clock marker. The watch has gold-tone hour, minute, and second hands, with the minute and hour hands appearing to be luminous or skeletonized. A gold-tone crown is visible on the right side of the case. The cream-colored leather strap exhibits some visible wear and discoloration, typical of a used leather band, especially near the lugs and where it might bend, but no significant tears or breaks are immediately apparent. The overall condition appears used but functional, with the embellishments intact. This watch likely dates from the late 20th or early 21st century, characteristic of the 'bling' or hip-hop inspired watch styles that became popular during that period. The craftsmanship suggests a mass-produced item rather than high-horology, focusing on aesthetic appeal over intricate mechanical movements.
