Vintage Hamilton 14K Yellow Gold Hidden Watch Bracelet Florentine Leaf, Diamonds, 6.5"

Description:
Vintage lady’s Hamilton hidden watch bracelet crafted in solid 14-karat yellow gold, designed in an elegant Florentine-finish leaf motif that conceals the watch dial beneath a hinged cover. The leaf is accented with three (3) round single-cut diamonds measuring approximately 2.0 mm each, graded G–H color and VS clarity, set in four-prong heads with delicate wire details.

Opening the hinged leaf reveals a Hamilton dial with gold-tone dot and Arabic numerals and matching gold-tone hands. The crystal is free of damage. The dial shows light rub marks from contact with the case, which is primarily visible only when the dial is removed from the housing (see photos).

This is a mechanical hand-winding movement. The watch winds and will run briefly but has not been serviced in a long time and will require servicing for regular wear.

The integrated bracelet is also solid 14K yellow gold and secures with a fold-over clasp and safety chain. The bracelet measures approximately 6.5 inches in circumference, indicating it was made for a smaller wrist, which is typical of these concealed bracelet watches.

This piece is well made, elegant, and representative of mid-century American watch jewelry design.
Approximate circa: 1950s–1960s.
