Vintage Women's Mechanical Watch 15 Jewels, Retro Square Dial, Black Strap

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Vintage-style mechanical watch for women, featuring a square dial with a retro design, typical of mid-20th century productions. The case has a silver metallic finish and straight lugs, accentuating the geometric appearance of the piece. The light-colored dial, slightly patinated, displays gold Arabic numerals and raised hour markers, with the inscription "15 Jewels" visible at the bottom of the dial, characteristic of quality mechanical movements from that era.

The watch has two gold hands (hours and minutes), as well as a small central second hand. The brand, handwritten in the center of the dial, appears to be "Mira" (reading to be confirmed due to lack of perfect sharpness). The crystal has a slight curve and seems to be original, with a uniform patina over the entire dial. The crown, visible on the right side of the case, is fluted for a good grip during winding.

The visible strap is black with a smooth appearance, probably made of synthetic material or leather, but the material cannot be visually confirmed without specific mention. The strap attachments are integrated into the case structure, highlighting the rectilinear aesthetic of this retro watch.

The case shows some signs of wear, including micro-scratches and slight tarnishing, indicating the age and authenticity of the piece. No chips or major defects are observable on the front face. The watch is presented on a yellow cushion, inside a wooden box, accompanied by decorative pearls in the background (not included).

Did you know? "15 Jewels" mechanical watches refer to a movement equipped with 15 synthetic rubies, used as bearings to reduce wear on the pivots and improve the precision of the mechanism. This standard was very common in quality watches produced between the 1940s and 1970s, before the widespread use of quartz movements.
