Vintage Swiss Made Opal ladies watch

The word "Opal" originates from the Greek word "Opallos," meaning "to see a change of color." This aptly describes the gem's unique optical phenomenon, known as "fire," where it displays a rainbow-like iridescence under light. The higher the opal's water content, the more pronounced and valuable its fire becomes. This vintage opal watch features an Australian-sourced opal, boasting magnificent hues. Opals are also known as the "Stone of Cupid," symbolizing romantic love and promising happy, everlasting relationships for those seeking love. They are believed to bring happiness to both the wearer and those around them. Furthermore, opals are thought to inspire creativity, making them an ideal choice for artists and individuals in creative professions. This piece is perfect for gifting or personal adornment.
