Vintage Vulcain Women's Wrist Watch with Speidel Bracelet

This is a vintage Vulcain women's wrist watch, featuring a distinctive rounded square or cushion-shaped case with a gold-tone finish. The dial is light-colored, possibly cream or silver, with what appear to be applied Arabic numerals at least at the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions, and baton or dot markers for the remaining hours. The hands are gold-toned and slender. The crystal appears to be slightly domed. The watch is attached to a flexible, gold-toned bracelet, described as a Speidel band, which features a woven or brick-link style pattern. Noteworthy is the intricate decorative detailing where the watch case meets the bracelet; these are likely two-tone, with the gold-tone of the watch case extending into some elements and contrasting with what appears to be silver-tone or white gold-tone embellishments, possibly featuring filigree work or small, unpolished 'nugget'-like textures. The crown, located on the right side of the case, is fluted and also gold-toned. Visible condition issues include potential scratches or wear on the watch crystal, as well as general signs of age and use on the metal components, such as minor surface wear or patina consistent with a vintage item. The 'Vulcain' brand name is clearly visible on the dial, indicating its manufacturer. The style, with its elegant case shape and the combination of gold and silver tones in the decorative elements, suggests a mid-20th century origin, likely 1940s to 1960s, a period known for delicate and ornate women's timepieces. The overall craftsmanship appears to be of good quality for its era, typical of watch brands producing reliable yet fashionable ladies' watches.
