Kinda looks like a longines
Even if it isnt “worth money” , this watch is so beautiful and cool!
Yo dawg, I hear you like gold, so I put some gold inside your gold watch so you can see gold while you see your gold watch
Beastly work you have here.
It sure is unique, thanks
Might even rise in value since Credit Suisse was just recently discontinued by UBS
That’s really cool! I own something similar but my bar is part of the middle! Very cool watch
Yeah I’ve seen a few of those. Thanks
I can’t give you any information on the watch, but the little gold bar is a hilarious flex! Very fun.

Maybe it’s a Swiss thing, but I was at the Victorinox store in Zurich last month and there was a mini pocket knife with a gram of gold embedded into the plastic handle. Very much like the dial of this watch.
The store employee said, if you’re every strapped for money with this knife at least you always know you’ve got a gram of gold as backup.
My (Swiss) kids got these gold bars for baptism gifts. It’s a bit of a tradition to give gold. 1g isn’t worth that much, but it symbolizes wealth and financial stability.
Cool piece!
Strange. I wasn’t able to find any information on the Watch brand, but when k searched for “credit Susie gold watch”, a lot of unknown Swiss brands seem to produce inexpensive watches with an ounce of gold embedded in the dial. Judging from the names of the brands and the movements used in the watches, my best guess would be that the the practice of embedding cheap quartz watches is done to make otherwise inexpensive, relatively cheaply made watches more desirable by ensuring they always retain some sort of resale value. I’d never heard of this practice until now and I think it’s a really neat gift from grandpa. Wear it in good health, I hope this helped a little.
Awesome down this rabbit hole I go
Lots of Gold & Silver Bullion exchanges like APMEX sell these.
I found a reference to a possibly defunct Criterium investment fund; this might have a promo item for them.
I was thinking something like this or perhaps a length of service gift; Credit Suisse used to be into those.
