This Pilgrim Bracelet is 2 1/4" diameter shortest part of this width is 3/4" to the top 1", with aqua blue and red stones. It winds up and is accurate to the time that I have set it for (PST). It weighs in at 2.9 ounces. What I've learned from the Pilgrim site is:
PILGRIM jewelry is made primarily of brass or zinc. It is first plated with copper and then with 16 to 22 carat gold or 925 sterling silver. We use stones including SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS, semi-precious stones and glass stones. We also use natural and freshwater pearls. All PILGRIM jewellery is 100% nickel-free and each item is handmade.
PILGRIM uses the best Japanese and Swiss quartz movements. The straps are leather or stainless steel and all cases are made from stainless steel. Decorations use SWAROVSKI ELEMENTS. All PILGRIM watches have mineral glass faces.
Precious stones are natural stones and their appearance is due to their naturally varying shades and hues. This is why it is impossible to decide upon a colour scale for all stones. The same type of stone can consist of both light shades and dark shades, have smaller or bigger spots or color veins and still be the same stone. That’s why they are so beautiful.
I'm not exactly sure if all from Pilgrim web site applies to my item, but it was something I was going by until I found this site. I guessing the era is 1920-1960 and maybe a costume jewelry item.
Again more information on this item would help like, name of this item, era, value and if this item is exactly made like what Pilgrim's web site describes.
Thank you for your time,
Toshi
