Avelta Opal Mosaic Dial Cocktail watch

The Avelta Ancre 17 is an eye-catching French ladies' dress watch produced in the early-to-mid 1970s. Founded by Édouard Chemla in Marseille during the 1960s, Avelta produced stylish timepieces that paired reliable French and Swiss mechanical calibers with bold, jewelry-focused designs. The focal point of this reference is its opalescent mosaic dial, featuring shimmering emerald green and fiery reddish-orange tones under gold-tone Arabic numerals and dot hour markers. The watch is housed in an oval silver-toned case stamped PLORG  on the caseback (Plaqué Or Galvanique, indicating galvanic electroplating) and is finished with an integrated double-twisted rope chain bracelet.
