1970s Tissot

A vintage 1970s gold plated Tissot wristwatch The chequered champagne sunburst dial features quarter hour stick indices and black baton hands Burgundy lacquer frames the dial while the gold plated case remains in good condition with wonderful bluing Accenting the case is a synthetic cabochon onyx set winding crown Worn on a lugged gold plated curb link bracelet of a similar vintage, perhaps this piece presents itself as more jewellery than wristwatch There is horizontal movement of the bracelet between the lugs. It remains secure and is fastened by a folding clasp with bails to accommodate a safety chain The Swiss made manual wind movement runs smoothly and keeps good time Case width - 26mm Case height - 31mm Lug width - 19mm Bracelet length including head - 17.75cm
