Our vintage mechanical watches date from the 1950s through the early 1980s, an era when ladies' timepieces were true jewellery pieces — delicate cases, hand-finished movements, and a charm that no battery-powered watch can quite replicate. Winding one each morning is a small, deliberate ritual. This collection features pieces from makers such as Omega, Longines, Seiko and others, each carefully checked and keeping time as it should.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"vintage-1972-gold-plated-ladies-23469","title":"Vintage 1972 Seiko Ladies' Mechanical Watch, Gold-Plated, Round Dial","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 1972 Seiko ladies' wristwatch in gold-plated steel.
