Bidspirit auction | Lot of 10 Ladies Watch
Lot of 10 Ladies Watch Movements and Cases - A collection of ten vintage ladies' watch movements and cases in mixed metals, including gold-filled, sterling silver, and base metal. The lot comprises both complete watch heads with dials in cream, champagne, and silvered finishes and individual movement assemblies visible from case backs. Dial styles range from simple applied indices to more decorative configurations with enamel hour markers. Several movements bear legible maker marks, including Waltham and Gruen. Cases show typical aging and oxidation consistent with age; dials display varying degrees of patina and surface wear. The collection spans the mid-twentieth century and represents the working components and decorative housings of ladies' dress watches from the era. Materials and construction suggest both American and European manufacture.
