Vintage Ladies' Gold-Tone Wristwatch with Tooth Charm

This item is a vintage ladies' wristwatch, characterized by its small, rectangular, gold-tone casing. The watch face is white, displaying black Arabic numeral hour markers except for the 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock positions which appear to be stylized or possibly missing as a design choice, though the image resolution makes this difficult to ascertain definitively. The hands are a dark, likely blued steel or black. The brand name 'BULOVA' is visible on the dial, indicating its manufacturer. The watch case itself appears to be made of a yellow gold-plated or gold-filled metal, exhibiting some wear and discoloration, suggesting age and use. There are subtle decorative embossed details on the top and bottom edges of the watch case. It is attached to a flexible, possibly stretchable, gold-tone bracelet, though only a small portion of the attachment mechanism and the beginning of the band are visible. A particularly unique and unusual feature is a charm, seemingly a real animal tooth (possibly a canine or bear claw), that is attached to a loop extending from the bottom of the watch case. The tooth has a natural, off-white to yellowish hue with darker markings or natural imperfections, and appears to be capped or mounted with a metal finding, which is then connected to the watch. Its condition shows signs of wear consistent with an older item, including scuffing and minimal loss of plating or patina on the metal surfaces, and the tooth charm itself has a weathered appearance. The overall aesthetic points to a style popular in the mid-20th century, likely between the 1940s and 1960s. The craftsmanship, while not exquisitely ornate, appears typical for a quality fashion watch of its era, with the added unique element of the charm.
