IK vintage rectangular black silver retro women's watch to be serviced old

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Women's watch with a rectangular case, presented here in a two-tone black and silver visual finish typical of antique models. The oval white dial displays a graduation in black Arabic numerals from 1 to 12. The classic-style hands are clearly visible on the dial. The brand "IK" appears clearly below the number 12, in a straight and clean typography. The setting crown is positioned on the right side, round in shape and in a shade matching the silver frame.

The case features straight lines and sharp angles, highlighting a retro style that evokes watches from the 1940s to the 1960s. The surface around the dial, with a glossy black appearance, contrasts elegantly with the silver surround. No strap is visible in the photo; only the watch head is presented, placed on a light textile support. No additional decoration or marking is visible on the front face.

The entire dial and case appear to be in used condition, with possible subtle signs of wear or patina, typical of an antique watch. The contours are clear, and the dial glass appears smooth, with no noticeable scratches visible on this face. The overall aesthetic highlights a vintage inspiration, suitable for a retro style or for restoration for contemporary use.

This mechanical or hand-wound watch (depending on visual typology) is sold without functional testing, making it primarily intended for overhaul, repair, or decoration. The absence of a strap allows for personalization of the attachment according to taste or desired use.

Condition

Used item sold as is, untested, needs servicing. Shows signs of use consistent with its age. The watch is offered without a strap.

Did you know? The rectangular shape of wristwatches experienced a particular boom at the beginning of the 20th century, notably with the rise of Art Deco. This geometric style, often associated with sober dials and marked contrasts, remains emblematic of women's watches from the 1930s to the 1960s, a period during which many brands, including IK, developed elegant and functional models.
