Ladies Swiss Sterling Silver Watch With Bracelet - Owned & Worn By Doris Day

About the Item

NAMED ONE OF WATCHPRO MAGAZINE’S “HOT 100” - THE TOP 100 INFLUENCERS OF THE U.S. WATCH INDUSTRY. HOW CAN WE SERVE YOU? We’re new to offering our carefully curated collection on 1stDibs, but we have sold over 10,000 fine watches and exceptionally served thousands of customers with a 5.0 star rating on other online sites. Ladies Swiss Sterling Silver Watch With Link Bracelet - OWNED & WORN BY DORIS DAY Certificate of Authenticity - Full Provenance with 2 COAs - 1 Year Warranty Today's offering showcases this stylish ladies Swiss made chrona sterling silver watch with original sterling silver link bracelet owned and worn by the late beloved entertainer Doris Day. Doris Day was the quintessential American sweetheart—an icon of silver screen charm, vocal brilliance, and effortless elegance. Rising to fame in the post-war era, she captivated audiences with her radiant smile, warm presence, and unmistakable voice, becoming one of the most beloved entertainers of the 20th century. Her film career included a string of box-office hits like Calamity Jane, Pillow Talk, and The Man Who Knew Too Much, showcasing her versatility as both a comedic talent and a dramatic actress. She was nominated for an Academy Award and received the Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement, not to mention her numerous other accolades across both film and music. As a singer, Doris Day's legacy is equally enduring. Her velvety vocals made hits like "Que Sera, Sera (Whatever Will Be, Will Be)" and "Sentimental Journey" timeless classics. She recorded more than 650 songs across her career, making her one of the most prolific and best-selling female vocalists of her generation. But beyond the screen and stage, Doris Day was known for her impeccable taste and style - always polished, always graceful. Her love for clean lines, pastel hues, and feminine silhouettes made her a quiet but powerful fashion influence in the golden age of Hollywood. She carried herself with a natural glamour that was never forced, always authentic. A devoted animal rights advocate, she dedicated the latter part of her life to causes she cared deeply about, founding the Doris Day Animal Foundation and lobbying tirelessly for animal welfare. Her compassion off-camera was as genuine and impactful as her on-screen presence. Owning a piece from Doris Day's personal collection - especially a timepiece that she wore - offers more than vintage sophistication. It carries the weight of her extraordinary legacy: a woman of talent, tenderness, and timeless style. It is in its original condition which present as excellent. The bezel is thick and rounded like a polished pebble, almost more like a bangle than a traditional case. It feels more like wearable art, which aligns well with fashion-forward 1970s and 1980s trends. Its primary function may be aesthetic as much as practical. It doubles as a silver bracelet, likely worn to complement outfits and provide a subtle signature piece - especially for someone like Doris Day, whose style was approachable, classic, and quietly luxurious. The dial is modernist - no hour markers, no date window, no second hand; just a brushed silver face with two slender hands. This minimalism lends the watch a timeless elegance. It was clearly worn and enjoyed by Doris Day through it remains in good condition. We have not cleaned or polished the watch or done anything to the outside of it - we left it just as we acquired it. The only work we have done on the watch is one of our Master Watchmakers, who as an authorized Rolex Watchmaker, has installed a new battery making it ready for immediate enjoyment. Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity. Also accompanying it is a Certificate of Authenticity and Provenance from a well-known auction house.
