LAST PIECE AVAILABLE! Buy now or cry later! Gorgeous 18 MM EXPANDABLE METAL WATCHBAND with GENUINE CORAL and TURQUOISE FLOWER FOLIAGE STERLING SILVER RAISED INLAY. Brand New, Never Worn condition. From Alfex of Switzerland. Not hallmarked. This watchband is made of 3 distinctive pieces: Two Sterling Silver jewelry end-pieces, with a beautiful flower foliage 3-dimentional cluster, with Genuine Coral and Turquoise stones, connected by a shiny silver-tone stainless steel expandable band. Band Length: 6 3/4" (unstretched) Band Width: 1" (at the very end) - 5/8" (at the middle) Will fit any 18 mm lug watch. Spring bars not included. UNISEX. Suitable for men and women. Important Notes: This watchband is a non-branded showroom sample piece, made of high-quality materials for Alfex Watches, which were distributed by Swiss Watch Corporation (14 E. 38th Street, New York, NY 10016), a licensed wholesale watch company that I worked for. As with any handcrafted product, the back (or unexposed side) of the end pieces bear marks inherent to the jewelry creation process and should not be considered defects. Also, Sterling Silver is a precious metal that tarnishes. Some ornate pieces, like the ones in this watchband, even look better with a little tarnish since the dark brown or black layer emphasizes the design. Please feel free to polish it with proper care at your discretion.

scwfriendkeo @qbacsg You're right, it's a stunning piece! But without a makers mark or a "sterling" stamp, I'm hesitant to gamble on its authenticity. I generally only buy from native makers, or pieces of native origin. I realize the band was made for Alfex, do you happen to know by whom?

qbacsg @scwfriendkeo The company I worked for (Swiss Watch Corporation) owned the wholesale distribution rights of Christian Dior, John Hardy, Robert Lee Morris, Alfex and a few other watch brands and the watchbands on the watches were, for the most part, made in Switzerland, Austria and USA. I assume this one was likely made here in the US, but I don't know who the actual maker was.

qbacsg @scwfriendkeo Watchbands like this one were not made to sell separately, but mounted on watches with similar motif that SWC sold too. I own one of those watches, with a beautiful silver dollar-design dial, but mine is set with crocodile skin straps.

qbacsg @scwfriendkeo As you know, pieces that are signed and/or hallmarked generally sell for much more money. Although mine is not, I know its provenance and I know that it is authentic. The more I'm thinking about it, the more I'm beginning to question if I should sell it at this low price. Let's see.

scwfriendkeo @qbacsg thank you so much for your quick response and insight!😊 It is definitely a beautiful piece! I do apologize if I came across as being rude, I've been burned before purchasing unmarked pieces, so I'm a little more cautious now.. Thanks again for answering my questions!😊
