Nelsonic Diamond Quartz Ladies Watch

This is a Nelsonic Diamond Quartz ladies' wristwatch, likely from the late 20th century, possibly 1980s or 1990s, given the 'Quartz' movement inscription and overall style. The watch features a silver-tone metal construction throughout, including the case and the flexible mesh-style bracelet. The watch case has an octagonal or subtly ovoid shape with a decorative, textured bezel that gives it a somewhat ornate or Art Deco-inspired appearance. Four small, spherical studs are visible at the 'corners' of the bezel, further enhancing its decorative quality. The dial is a light champagne or off-white color with clear, gold-toned batons serving as hour markers, suggesting a classic and understated aesthetic. The hands are also gold-toned and appear to be dauphine-style. Above the 12 o'clock position, the brand name 'NELSONIC' is visible, with 'DIAMOND' printed below it, accompanied by a small diamond symbol. The word 'QUARTZ' is printed above the 6 o'clock position, indicating the movement type. Below the 'QUARTZ' inscription, 'JAPAN MOVT' is faintly visible, indicating the origin of the watch movement. The crown on the right side of the case is ridged, allowing for easy adjustment of time. The bracelet is a fine-knit mesh design, typical of many vintage watches, with a secure clasp mechanism not fully visible but implied by the continuous nature of the band. The metal shows some signs of wear consistent with age and use, such as minor surface scratches or dulling of the finish, particularly on the bracelet, but no significant damage like deep gouges or missing components are immediately apparent. The overall condition appears good for its age, suggesting it was reasonably well-maintained. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for mass-produced quartz watches of its era, focusing on functional aesthetics with a touch of elegance provided by the decorative case and simulated diamond accent.
