Description: Rare Vintage 1972 Ladies Caravelle Watch Silver Dial Stainless Steel Bracelet The BasicsThis 1972 Caravelle is a 26mm (crown included) adult mechanical watch with a silver tone polished base metal case and a stainless-steel back case, and a stainless-steel bracelet. It has a silver-colored analog dial protected by a new high-dome acrylic crystal. It has pull-out crown at the 3 o'clock position. It has 17 jewels. The ConditionThis watch is in excellent condition. The case looks amazing for its age (50 years old), as does the dial. The dial is in amazing condition. The watch functions properly. The watch holds a good charge fully wound. Everything on the watch itself is original (dial, hands, movement) except for the crystal, which is new but appropriate for the watch. For a watch that is 50 years old, it runs and looks great! The Case and BandThe case measures approximately 26mm wide (including the crown) by approximately 9mm thick. You should use care with the watch around water, given that it is a vintage watch (50 years old). You cannot swim, bath, or shower with this watch. The gap between the lugs is 11mm. The bracelet is stainless-steel, and vintage.

This is a rare, beautiful watch. You will have a hard time finding one like in this condition. Though it is 50 years old, it runs and looks great. Extra care is required for the ownership and care of a vintage watch. You can damage a mechanical watch by overwinding it. Manuals and videos on how to maintain and operate Caravelle and vintage watches are available online. There are plenty of instructional videos on how to set the time, adjust the date, replace the band, and so on. With the vintage watches, it is not always obvious how to change the date, for example—please refer to online manuals and videos. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Mechanical watches of this age are NOT BRAND-NEW WATCHES. They will not keep time as accurately as a quartz watch or a new mechanical watch. So, please, make sure that you understand you are buying a vintage timepiece that will keep good time but not perfect time. For that, you are better off with a new watch. Please review the details and photographs carefully. I do not accept returns. The watch will be securely packaged and shipped within one day of payment via USPS.
