Description

Vintage Navajo Bulova Sterling Silver & Turquoise Cuff Watch

This elegant vintage Navajo ladies’ cuff watch features handcrafted sterling silver with two bezel-set turquoise cabochons and classic stamped feather motifs. At its center is a 23-jewel Bulova mechanical wind-up movement, marked “N2” on the case back, dating the piece to 1972. The watch is smoothly integrated into the silver framework—reflecting the skilled craftsmanship of a mid-century Navajo silversmith.

Delicate in scale yet rich in character, the cuff presents a delicate balance between form and function. The turquoise stones are framed by hand-stamped fan elements and rope detailing.

A wearable collector’s piece.


Condition:

Good vintage condition. The sterling silver has a natural, untouched patina and shows minor wear consistent with age. The Bulova watch is tested and fully functional—winds smoothly, runs well, and keeps accurate time. The crystal has light surface scratches; gold-plated case shows some aging. Stones are secure and free from damage. The piece is presented unpolished to preserve its original vintage character.
