18K yellow gold round open face pendant watch in excellent condition. 25mm case diameter. Case and bow show no sign of wear, with deep and crisp hand engraved outer lids and case body. There are 19 set diamond chips arranged into burst and star gold line enamel design in cobalt blue (you can see the spotting visible in the gold through the enamel), included on the case back center. The translucent 360 degree domed guilloche (you can see the spotting in the dial base metal visible through the enamel) cobalt blue enamel glass dial has no visible flaw Louis XlV gold color hour and minute hands. Hand engraved hidden inner gold lid "Winifred Alyce Xmas '92". The item is in running condition, with a good staff, but is in mechanically "sticky" condition; meaning it will run and stop, but keeping time while its running. This indicates no major issues. In my experience, after decades of sitting in a drawer, the movement surely needs an overhaul by a watchmaker. 10 jewels, Swiss cylinder type escapement, stem wind, pin set.
