Vintage Mechanical Watch Lady Anker 17 Jewels Shockproof Rectangular Women's

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old mechanical women's watch signed Lady Anker, featuring a rectangular case with faceted edges. The light-colored dial shows significant patination and visible signs of wear, typical of a vintage piece. The hour markers are gold stick-shaped, positioned at 3, 6, 9, and 12 o'clock, while the other hour markings are represented by simple thin black lines. The inscription "17 JEWELS ANTICHOC" is clearly visible at the bottom of the dial, characteristic of high-quality mechanical watches of the era.

The "LP" logo and the inscription "LADY ANKER" appear on the upper part of the dial, confirming the brand's authenticity. The crown, positioned on the right, is gold-colored and knurled, facilitating manual winding. The case appears to have a silver metallic finish, with traces of oxidation and scratches, reinforcing its character as a period object. The rectangular, slightly octagonal shape evokes a style from the 1960s to 1970s, a period during which this type of design was favored in women's watchmaking.

The dial is protected by a flat crystal, whose surface shows some superficial scratches. No strap is visible in the photo; only the central part of the watch is shown. The whole is highlighted against a baroque background, accentuating the contrast between the object and its environment.

The Lady Anker watch presented here is a mechanical hand-wound model, identifiable by the presence of the knurled crown and the absence of digital or electronic display. The minimalist style of the hour markers and the absence of a second hand accentuate its sleek and retro aesthetic.
