The item in the image is a Kashmiri Kundan Watch, also commonly referred to as a Jewellery Watch or Bracelet Watch. While it functions as a timepiece, its design is rooted in traditional Kashmiri and North Indian bridal aesthetics, making it more of an ornament than a standard accessory.
​Detailed Description
​Design Style: This is a "Kundan-style" watch, characterized by its ornate, gold-toned metalwork and the use of Kundan stones (highly refined glass/gemstones set in gold foil). The floral motifs and teardrop patterns are classic hallmarks of Kashmiri jewelry design.
​Central Dial: The dial is marked with "CTZ" (a common brand for these artistic watches) and features a minimalist analog face surrounded by a halo of white stones.
​The "Jhumka" Accents: You’ll notice small gold beads and hanging pearls (sometimes called ghungroos or drops) on the sides. These mimic the look of traditional earrings and adding movement to the piece.
​The Chain: Instead of a leather or metal link strap, it uses a multi-layered gold-toned chain, giving it a regal, draped appearance on the wrist.
​Artistic Influence: The red center stones and the green detailing near the top are likely Meenakari work (enamel painting), which is often paired with Kundan to create a vibrant, festive look.
​Traditional Usage
​These watches are rarely for everyday wear. They are specifically designed for:
​Weddings & Bridals: Often worn by brides or guests to match heavy Lehengas or Shararas.
​Festivals: A popular choice for Eid, Diwali, or Karva Chauth.
​Cultural Statement: It serves as a modern fusion piece that honors the heritage of Kashmiri craftsmanship while serving a functional purpose.
