Description
Circa 1930s, this delicate Bulova wristwatch reflects the refined geometry and balanced proportions of the Art Deco era. Its elongated rectangular form, diamond-accented shoulders, and subtle mixed metal details highlight the period’s love of symmetry, clean architectural lines, and understated brilliance. The watch features a 10K yellow gold filled case and a 1/20 12K yellow gold filled adjustable bracelet, with white gold triangular accents flanking the dial—drawing the eye to the petite single cut diamonds while adding contrast and dimension.
Founded in 1875, Bulova became one of America’s most respected watchmakers, known for combining technical precision with elegant design. In the early 20th century, the company often used gold-filled construction to create durable, well-made timepieces suited for everyday wear.
Gold-filled jewelry rose to prominence in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a practical alternative to solid gold, valued for its strength, longevity, and close resemblance to solid gold.
