Sarah Coventry Supreme Gold Tone Women's Watch with Floral Embellishments

This is a vintage Sarah Coventry 'Supreme' ladies' watch, characterized by its elegant gold-tone finish and decorative floral elements. The watch features an oval-shaped watch case, appearing to be made of polished gold-toned base metal. The dial is a light, possibly silver or champagne, color with 'SARAH COVENTRY' printed prominently below the 12 o'clock position, and 'SUPREME' and 'MOVT' (likely indicating Japan movement) near the 6 o'clock position. Instead of traditional numerals, the hour markers are represented by small, raised gold-toned dots, except for the 12 o'clock position which features a small, clear gemstone, possibly a cubic zirconia or diamond chip, set in a pointed gold-tone frame. The hands are simple, slender gold-toned hour and minute hands. The watch crown, on the right side of the case, is fluted and gold-toned. The watch band is particularly distinctive, composed of a textured, possibly reptilian-print or basketweave, dark material (likely leather or a synthetic imitation) that transitions into elaborate gold-toned metal embellishments. These embellishments take the form of stylized, three-dimensional roses or floral motifs, two of which are visible where the band connects to the watch case. The gold-tone appears to have some minor wear and possibly some tarnishing or discoloration consistent with age and use, particularly on the raised floral designs and around the bezel. The overall style suggests an age from the mid to late 20th century, likely 1960s-1980s, reflecting the popular costume jewelry aesthetic of Sarah Coventry. The craftsmanship is typical of fashion watches from this era, focusing on ornamental design rather than high horology. No significant damage like cracks or deep scratches are immediately visible, but minor surface wear is present.
