Vintage Gruen Quartz Women's Mesh Band Watch with Diamond Bezel

This is a vintage Gruen women's wristwatch, characterized by its elegant gold-tone aesthetic and diamond-accented bezel. The watch features a small, hexagonal watch face with a light gold or cream-colored dial. The hour markers are simple, gold-tone indices, and the hands are also gold-tone. The dial is clearly marked 'GRUEN' at the 12 o'clock position and 'QUARTZ' below the center, indicating a quartz movement. The most striking feature is the intricate bezel, which is set with a single row of small, round, brilliant-cut diamonds or diamond simulants, giving the watch a luxurious and sparkling appearance. The bezel itself appears to be white gold or silver-toned metal, providing a striking contrast to the gold-tone case and band. The watch is attached to a flexible, gold-tone mesh band, which fastens with a clasp that is not fully visible but appears to be a standard jewelry clasp. In terms of condition, the watch appears to be in good vintage condition with a visible patina consistent with its age. There are no obvious signs of significant damage such as large scratches or dents on the watch face or case. The mesh band shows some minor signs of wear but no visible kinking or damage. The crystals or diamonds on the bezel appear intact and complete. The overall impression is one of well-maintained elegance, typical of a dress watch from the mid to late 20th century. Based on the 'QUARTZ' marking, the watch likely dates from the 1970s or 1980s, when quartz movements became widely popular. The craftsmanship is indicative of a quality fashion or dress watch from that era, with attention to detail in the bezel setting and the construction of the mesh band.
