Ladies' Gold-Tone Dress Watch with Blue Cabochon Crown

This item is a compact, elegant ladies' wristwatch with a classic design, strongly reminiscent of vintage luxury models, specifically those featuring a blue cabochon crown. The watch features a gold-toned case, likely yellow gold or gold-plated, presenting an appealing elongated oval or subtly tonneau shape. Its white dial is adorned with clear black Roman numerals, providing a timeless and highly readable aesthetic. The hour and minute hands appear to be blued steel or black stick hands, offering a sharp contrast against the light dial. A prominent and distinguishing feature is the winding crown, which is set with a striking blue cabochon, a signature design element often associated with high-end brands like Cartier. The watch is fitted with a finely crafted, flexible gold-toned Milanese mesh bracelet that tapers gently towards a deployant clasp. The bracelet's intricate weave contributes significantly to the watch's sophisticated appearance and comfortable wear on the wrist. Visible condition issues are minimal; the watch generally appears clean with a good luster, though minor surface scratches consistent with normal wear may be present upon closer inspection. No significant dents, dings, or crystal damage are clearly apparent from the provided images. Due to the lack of clear maker's marks or signatures discernible in the provided image, it is difficult to determine the exact manufacturer or verify if it is a genuine branded piece or an homage. Its elegant and enduring style suggests a production period from the mid-20th century, possibly the 1970s to 1990s, a period when such classic dress watches were highly popular. The overall quality of craftsmanship, particularly in the bracelet and case finish, indicates a well-made timepiece designed for formal occasions or sophisticated everyday wear. The watch's small, refined scale makes it ideal as a delicate jewelry-like accessory.
