Gold-Toned Ladies' Quartz Wristwatch with Damaged Crystal

This item is a ladies' quartz wristwatch, characterized by its predominantly gold-toned metallic construction. The watch features a small, round watch face with a black background, contrasting with what appear to be silver or white hour markers, possibly simple dots or small indices. There are three hands visible, indicating hours, minutes, and seconds, all in a light color for readability against the dark dial. The crystal covering the watch face shows significant damage, with a prominent crack or shatter mark originating from the center and extending outwards, severely impairing visibility of the dial in that area. The bezel surrounding the crystal is also gold-toned and has a ribbed or fluted texture. The watch is attached to a flexible gold-toned metal bracelet, featuring a patterned link design, possibly a textured or woven style. The clasp mechanism is visible at the end of the bracelet and appears to be a fold-over or deployment style, showing signs of wear and discoloration, particularly on the inner surface. The overall golden hue suggests it is either gold-plated, gold-filled, or a base metal alloy. There are no visible maker's marks or signatures on the face or exposed parts of the band, making specific manufacturing details difficult to ascertain. Given its style, it likely dates from the late 20th century, possibly 1980s or 1990s. The condition indicates heavy use and significant damage to the crystal, which would require professional repair or replacement. The metal surfaces also exhibit expected wear and tarnishing consistent with age and use.
