Vintage Ladies' Wristwatch and Bypass Cocktail Ring Set

A collection comprising two distinct pieces of jewelry. The first is a vintage ladies' cocktail watch featuring a petite round yellow-gold-toned case. The watch face is ivory/champagne with Arabic numerals and pointed baton-style hands. It is attached to a flexible snake or 'S' link bracelet that shows signs of significant wear, with the gold plating thinning to reveal a silver-colored base metal. The crystal shows light scratching, and there appears to be oxidation on the dial commensurate with a mid-20th-century age. The second item is a bypass-style cocktail ring with a highly textured, yellow-gold-toned shank featuring a granular or 'caviar' bead pattern. The ring is an open-crossover design tipped with two cabochon stones: one appears to be a black onyx or dark gemstone, while the other end is encrusted with micro-pavé set colorless stones, likely clear quartz or diamonds. The ring displays modern craftsmanship, possibly late 20th century. Both items show signs of frequent wear; the watch has significant metal fatigue and patina on the bracelet, while the ring appears better preserved but needs cleaning between the granules. No visible hallmarks are identifiable in the current view, but the design motifs suggest a mix of mid-century utility and late-century glamour.
