Vintage K retro digital men's watch for restoration, metal strap, 80s
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
Men's digital watch with an electronic display, retro style, as shown in the picture. The dial has a rectangular shape with rounded corners, typical of 1980s models. The black face has a light frame, with "TIME - DATE," "SET," and "LIGHT" inscribed in white, as well as a large "K" at the bottom of the dial. The rectangular LCD screen shows the numbers, although the display appears partially unreadable or off. Two side buttons are visible: one on each side of the case.
The case has a brushed metallic finish, with noticeable signs of wear, particularly on the edges and the lower part, where scratches, surface loss, and oxidation marks are visible. The bracelet, also metallic in appearance, is made of wide, articulated links and also shows signs of oxidation and rust on some visible links.
The overall style, the font of the inscriptions, and the shape of the case strongly evoke the digital watches popular in the 80s, with a functional and understated design, both utilitarian and representative of that period. No complete brand logo is visible, apart from the letter "K" on the dial, without precise identification of the manufacturer. The item is offered as is, to be put back into working order or restored.
The watch is photographed resting on a wooden piece of furniture, in natural light. Only the front face and part of the bracelet are visible; no details about the back or inside are observable.
Condition
Used watch, sold as is, for restoration. Marked traces of wear, scratches, visible oxidation on the case and bracelet. Digital display untested or partially readable. Ideal for refurbishment or restoration projects.
