Women's Balthasar vintage quartz watch, silver-tone metal bracelet, retro
AFW - Antique France Worldwide
Description
This Balthasar women's watch features a decidedly vintage design, characterized by a round silver-finished case and a polished metallic link bracelet. The white dial offers optimal readability thanks to rectangular silver markers and large stylized numerals positioned at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock. The silver hands contrast with the central orange second hand, adding a retro touch to the model.
The dial is signed "Balthasar" in cursive letters below the 12 o'clock marker, and the word "QUARTZ" is simply stated in the center. The outer minute track, graduated in red, accentuates the classic style of quartz watches from past decades. The domed glass covers the entire dial, enhancing the retro aesthetic of this piece.
The visible bracelet is made of large, mirror-effect links, typical of vintage women's models. The notched crown located at 3 o'clock is clearly visible and allows for manual time adjustment. The case and bracelet have a uniform silver finish, with no apparent decorative patterns.
The overall style evokes watches from the 80s and 90s, with a timeless look suitable for daily wear or for display in a collection of antique watches. No other decorative elements or logos are visible on this face of the watch.
Condition
