Object description

Case and Bracelet

The watch is housed in a stainless steel Oyster case, a signature construction for the brand. The case measures 25mm in diameter, adapting the structural design of larger masculine counterparts to a smaller form factor. The original crown remains attached to the side of the case.

The timepiece is secured by a riveted Oyster bracelet, which features a distinct construction style consistent with the period of manufacture. This bracelet assembly complements the steel finish of the case and serves as the original attachment for the watch.
