Dreicer & Co. Diamond and Seed Pearl Bracelet Watch
$22,500
Dating from the late 1910s-1920s, this early wristwatch serves as a seed pearl and diamond bracelet and timekeeper alike. Its signed ivory tone dial with stylized Arabic numeral indicators is framed by diamonds, and joins a platinum and seed peal mash bracelet, highlighted by diamond bars. Sleek in design, this classic period bracelet watch showcases the gleaming luminescence of velvety pearls against the sparkle of diamonds, creating a jewel of a timepiece.
