Description
A small square Oris case with stepped Art Deco shoulders and sweeping teardrop lugs, drawn with the geometry of mid-century architecture. This 1940s–1950s Swiss watch has a soft silver dial with gold-tone Arabic numerals and slender hands, softened by decades of patina. Oris built its name on reliable, well-made Swiss movements, and this 15-jewel ladies' piece carries that early heritage. It is fitted to a gold-tone expansion band. Untested.

Gold-plated bezel (10 microns), stainless steel caseback, gold-tone expansion band
