Vintage Maxime Beaufort quartz wristwatch, rectangular dial, classic style

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This Maxime Beaufort wristwatch features a vintage design with timeless elegance. The rectangular light-colored dial is framed by a metallic-looking case, whose finish evokes a refined classic style. The Arabic numerals are applied in relief on the dial, with "Maxime Beaufort" and "QUARTZ" clearly legible, confirming the nature of the movement.

The bracelet is made of wide, rigid links, decorated with a very distinctive openwork geometric Greek pattern. This structure gives the watch a decorative and robust appearance, typical of Art Deco-inspired creations or 1990s-2000s designs that revisited this style. The clasp and back are not visible in the photo, but the front shows a notched crown on the right side of the case, allowing the time to be set.

The finish of the bracelet and case shows visible patina and some signs of wear, suggesting prior use which accentuates the retro charm of this piece. The watch has an overall shiny surface, with metallic reflections and some marks of oxidation or discoloration on exposed areas.

The dial displays four main indices (3, 6, 9, 12) in Arabic numerals, while the other hours are marked by small thin lines. The thin, light-colored hands stand out well against the dial background, offering easy time reading. The ensemble is balanced and harmonious, with a sober and elegant aesthetic.

This model is ideal for anyone looking for a vintage watch that is both decorative and functional, to be worn daily or integrated into a selection of retro jewelry. The mention "quartz" indicates battery operation, characteristic of watches with modern movements but with designs inspired by past decades.

Did you know? Watches with Greek patterns, like the one visible on this bracelet, are inspired by an ancient decorative motif called "meander" or "Greek key," a symbol of infinity and very popular in Art Deco and 20th-century jewelry. This design is regularly revisited in watchmaking to emphasize a classic and sophisticated identity.
