Item Description

This vintage pretty ladies watch is marked GM 1719176 rolled gold. The watch face says Estima.
It is 6 7/8" long.

Rolled gold was first created in the 19th century in England where it became an affordable way to make costume jewelry. It allowed designers to create statement pieces that looked exactly like gold but came at a fraction of the price. The quality was also much better than gold plating and the pieces lasted longer.
Rolled gold is made by fusing a base metal, usually silver, brass or copper, between thin sheets of gold. The metals are then bonded together using heat and rolled into flat sheets for use in jewelry.
Unlike many other metals used in jewelry making, rolled gold jewelry is hypoallergenic, and generally doesn’t cause issues for those with metal allergies.
Generally speaking, rolled gold has about 100 times more gold than gold plate jewelry. Gold plate uses very little solid gold in its composition. As a result, it is less durable and also cheaper than rolled gold.
Over time, the gold plating wears or flakes off, revealing the metal beneath. Rolled gold, on the other hand, does not wear off in this manner as it has a thicker layer of gold. https://www.jewelryshoppingguide.com/what-is-rolled-gold/
