HAMILTON WATCH & BRACELET WITH DIAMONDS – HIGH WATCHMAKING JEWELRY FROM THE 1950s Made in the United States during the 1950s, this refined Hamilton-signed watch bracelet represents one of the highest expressions of post-war watchmaking-jewelry. When the great manufacturers became mechanical precision, aesthetic research, and high art of stone setting. In those years, the women's watch ceased to be a simple time-measuring instrument and became an authentic evening jewel, designed to accompany the elegance of the most exclusive occasions. The round case, with balanced and harmonious proportions, is surrounded by a rich frame of natural brilliant-cut diamonds, arranged in a refined radial composition that amplifies the brightness of the dial and enhances its reading with discretion and balance. This stylistic choice, typical of the 1950s, was reserved for high-end models, intended for a sophisticated clientele. On the sides of the case, two spectacular fan motifs made with baguette-cut diamonds are developed, perfectly calibrated and set one by one. The baguettes, slightly divergent, create a refined architectural and three-dimensional effect, an expression of a complex and high-level setting technique, capable of transforming light into a structural element of the design. The bracelet is embellished with a continuous sequence of natural diamonds, wrapping the wrist with extreme softness. The workmanship of the links, designed to ensure comfort and visual continuity, reflects the maniacal attention to detail typical of the high watchmaking jewelry of the time. The function of the watch is naturally integrated into the composition, letting the gems and lines dominate the scene. The dial, essential and clean, respects the aesthetic canons of 1950s jewelry watches, offering a sober reading that does not distract attention from the precious whole. The result is a perfect balance between mechanics, jewelry, and style, in an object designed to last over time and to be handed down.
