Men's watch Calypso vintage retro black rectangular dial metal bracelet

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description Men's watch from the Calypso brand, featuring a decidedly retro design. The visible dial is rectangular, black, with stylized white Arabic numerals offering excellent readability. The slender hands, also white, stand out clearly against the dark background. The dial is signed "CALYPSO" in the lower part, with a distinctive logo below the central axis.

The case features a shiny metallic finish, with softened angles and clean lines, reinforcing the piece's vintage aesthetic. The strap, visible in the photo, consists of wide, flat links with a polished metallic look, typical of retro-style watches. The winding crown is positioned to the right of the case and is clearly visible on this side.

The dial displays oversized numerical indices (2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12), characteristic of creations inspired by the 90s-2000s, and gives the watch a classic yet assertive style. No other indicators (date, chronograph) are visible on the displayed face. The entire strap and case have a uniform, shiny steel grey hue.

The watch lies flat, which allows for observation of the strap's structure and the consistent finish between the case and the strap. Reflections on the case and strap reveal a smooth surface, with no apparent engraved decoration. No major flaws, deep scratches, or chips are visible on the photographed face, apart from some slight signs of wear compatible with normal use.

The watch is functional according to the keywords provided. No precise material indication is mentioned in the keywords; the general appearance suggests polished metal, without being able to formally identify it.

Condition Used item in good apparent condition, sold as is. Some superficial signs of wear may be observed on the case and strap, without affecting readability or functionality.
