Hey Cheech I can't speak of the bracelet style but looking at the watch it is definitely not worth fixing. You can just send it to me . Actually I think it's a close call because of the condition of the dial. You probably could get 50 bucks for just the case back. I think selling it as a parts watch probably your best option

That's what I was thinking was just to sale as parts but it actually works it just needs a new stem Crystal and a real good cleaning and a new band I've seen similar ones so up to $1100 that was sold as a 1960s cording to the book this one is 1959 that's why I was wondering if it was worth dumping a couple hundred into it thank you for your opinion greatly appreciate it

Chanel logos on the bracelet.

That Longines might be a very nice pricey watch over $200, does it work? Email the Longines company and provide as many pics as possible especially of the movement, and they'll tell you everything about it including the exact day it was made! (assuming they have the info because sometimes they don't but who knows)

Chanel on the bracelet, but possibly not authentic Chanel.

Doesn't look "right" like it's missing something or cheaply made, but maybe someone could verify it or recognizes the style, I might be wrong, hopefully I am.

A lot of fakes out there with that stuff.

The only marks are the ones you see in the picture there are no other ones anywhere that I can find this is costume jewelry did not realize they made costume jewelry until the other day

You are right. I should have thought of that myself seeing as how I have run across fake designer jewelry more than a few times. That's probably why I can't find anything similar to this piece. Thanks for reminding me of the obvious. I would expect some other markings on this piece somewhere, besides the logos themselves that are depicted on the charms. Chanel, like all other high end designers are all about the branding.
