Recently my husband and I acquired some old antiques from a recently passed great-aunt. Two of the items was received were watches. This particular watch, is a GORGEOUS (in PERFECT condition)dainty Incabloc, Croton ladies wristwatch. Includes double closure, and safety chain. No markings on the back, and I haven't yet opened up the backing as I'm afraid to hurt the watch without the proper tools. We suspect the diamonds may be real that are inlaid into the watch. It does wind and keep time. We don't currently know it's age, or value. Should we get it insured? Thank you! |

It'll be worth the value of the metal and stones. I wouldn't worry about insurance. |

I'd say late 1950s. |
