Vintage Ladies' Oval Dial Watch with Stretch Band
This item is a vintage ladies' wristwatch, characterized by its petite, oval-shaped watch head and a flexible, articulated stretch band. The watch case appears to be made of a silver-toned metal, possibly stainless steel or a plated base metal, given its somewhat dulled luster and visible wear. The dial is light-colored, potentially silver or white, featuring black Arabic numerals for hours 1 through 12, though some are partially obscured by glare or wear. The minute and hour hands are dark-toned and relatively slender. The crystal covering the dial is domed, showing some scratches and haziness consistent with age and use. Around the watch head, there are no obvious brand markings visible on the dial, with only 'QUARTZ' faintly discernible, indicating a quartz movement. The watch connects to the stretch band via distinctive, decorative 'X'-shaped or infinity-symbol-like links on both sides, which attach to the expanding metal segments of the band. The band itself is composed of numerous small, rectangular links with a brushed or satin finish, connected to allow for expansion and contraction to fit the wrist. The overall condition shows signs of use, including surface scratches on the metal components, slight discoloration or patina on the silver-toned metal, and potential wear on the watch crystal. There are no visible major repairs or significant damage, but the age and frequent use are evident. The style suggests a period from the late 20th century, likely 1980s to early 2000s, given the quartz movement and the design of the stretch band. The craftsmanship, while functional, appears to be typical of mass-produced fashion watches of that era, rather than high-end horology.
