About the Item
In our neverending crusade to reuse high-quality gold ladies' wristwatches -- beautifully made and wearable as anything BUT a timepiece -- we offer this hot-off-the-workbench 14 karat gold bracelet, formerly a Lady Elgin manual wind wristwatch with an itty-bitty face.
Eytan replaced the watch guts, crystal and itty bitty face with a deeply saturated pink, yellow and green "watermelon" tourmaline. (Usually the "watermelon" qualifier is used for tourmalines that are green and pink; our stone has a bit of yellow, but it still reminds us of watermelon...)
The 4.7 carat stone, from the Democratic Republic of Congo, has a simple step cut with a large table (all the better to show off the colors, my dear).
The bracelet is a thick, semi-flexible mesh -- solid 14 karat gold and built to last. The case has been sealed shut, the crown removed, and the stem hole filled in. The bracelet retains the sleek, modern look of a mid-century wristwatch, but without the eye-straining inconvenience of a wind-up watch that's never as accurate as your phone!
The foldover lock has two rungs to allow for a slight (about 1/4") adjustment in length. Since this was a watch, it was sized for a close fit. It looks best worn the same way, and it won't fit wrists much larger than 6-1/4". We don't recommend resizing. A safety chain, detachable on one end, is included.
The band is 11mm (0.44") wide and 2.6mm thick.
The back of the watch case and the spring ring on the safety chain are both stamped 14 karat gold. The clasp is stamped "14K" plus an unknown maker's mark (for the strap, not the original watch).
This bracelet weighs 31 grams.

Antique Book Chain Bracelet in 18 Karat Yellow Gold with Chrysoprase Box Clasp
Located in Sherman Oaks, CA
This unusual chain is a segment from an 18 karat gold 40" long necklace that one of our customers inherited from a great-great-great-blah-blah aunt. We know it's European, because her people immigrated from Poland, and we know it's at least a hundred years old (by the number of "greats" in front of the distant aunt) but that's about it. The mark on the original clasp just says "18K," with no tasty hallmarks to help with identification.
We've never seen a chain like this. It resembles a book chain, but the construction is different. Basically, it's two lengths of rolo-style cable chain connected to each other by horizontal oval loops with links on each end. It's got great, loose-snaky movement, and every other center loop has been stamped with a bubbly pattern, just to give it a little more visual oomph.
We're going to cut this chain down for various projects because it doesn't really work as a necklace. (It's the kind of thing you'd wear with your metals of office, which you don't have, and neither does anyone else.)
Project numero uno is this one-of-a-kind, absolutely unique bracelet, which combines the chain with a fantastic vintage 14 karat box clasp, salvaged from an ugly bead bracelet, that's been sitting around the shop just waiting for this chain to come along. It's a big oval box clasp set with a chewy chrysoprase cabochon, nicely cut, great color, and about 15 carats.
The clasp is stamped "585" and "14" on the back, along with the maker's mark (MG) for Manchu Gems, which was a Hong Kong jeweler that produced a lot of distinctively "oriental" jade, coral and chrysoprase jewelry...
