An antique Art Deco era E. Gubelin Lucerne mechanical octagonal dress watch in fourteen-karat gold. Its bezel is finished in painted floral enamel across soft pink, blue, and green tones, and a Greek key motif, dating to the 1920s. A Milanese zigzag pattern mesh bracelet in matching gold carries the case around the wrist, closed with a slide-adjustable clasp for an easy, custom fit. Painted enamel bezels like this were a hallmark of fine Swiss watchmaking in the early twentieth century, adding jewel-like color and detail to a compact timepiece. The octagonal case and mesh band sit close and flat against the wrist, giving it the presence of fine jewelry as much as a watch.
