Have looked, will keep looking.

This thread reminds me of a photo I once saw of Queen Elizabeth. She was wearing a dainty gold watch with a case that, at least in the picture, seemed to be so thin as to be impossible. It looked so elegant I’ve never forgotten it, and I kept wondering how such a lovely thing would feel in one’s hands, and on one’s wrist; what would the sound be, if it clinked against a crystal goblet... etc.

I tried looking up “thin watch cases” and the like, to figure out if what I had appeared to see was even possible, but couldn’t find anything that fit.

It may have been some artifact of the photo; but how thin can they build a watch case to be, these days?

I looked under Vintage women’s watch on ebay and saw a number of small feminine watches.

Queen Elizabeth wears custom everything.
