Grayton Automatic 'California Dial' Stainless Steel Watch
This is a contemporary Grayton automatic wristwatch featuring a notable 'California Dial,' which uniquely combines Roman numerals on the top half and Arabic numerals on the bottom half. The watch is constructed from brushed and polished stainless steel with a circular case approximately 40-42mm in diameter. The sunray dial has a grey gradient finish (fumé effect), transitioning from a lighter center to a darker perimeter. It includes a date window at the 3 o'clock position and is marked with the 'GRAYTON' brand name below 12 o'clock and 'AUTOMATIC' above 6 o'clock. The hands are baton-style with luminous inserts for visibility in low light. The timepiece is paired with a matching three-link stainless steel 'Oyster' style bracelet with a brushed finish. This watch reflects a modern classic aesthetic, likely manufactured within the last ten years. In terms of condition, the item appears to be in good used condition with superficial surface scratches consistent with light wear, particularly on the bezel and bracelet links. The crystal appears clear, though minor micro-abrasions may be present under magnification. No significant structural damage or heavy oxidation is visible.
