A luminous mother-of-pearl dial anchors this Bon Jour quartz watch, its warm iridescence framed by a polished gold-tone case and paired with a substantial three-bar gate-link bracelet inset with two rows of clear rhinestones near the lugs. The open architectural link design gives the bracelet real visual weight while keeping it from feeling heavy on the wrist — a balance that defined the best American fashion watches of the late 1980s and early 90s. Bon Jour occupied a reliable middle tier of the market, producing pieces with genuine jewelry sensibility at accessible price points. Needs a battery to run; otherwise in excellent vintage condition.
Materials: Gold-tone base metal, mother-of-pearl dial, clear rhinestones, quartz movement
