Forstner 7-Row Beads of Rice Gold-Plated Watch Bracelet
Classic beads of rice styling in yellow gold.
The beads of rice bracelet has been a favorite among watch collectors since the mid-twentieth century, combining refined styling with everyday comfort. Originally produced by Jacoby-Bender and fitted to some of the era's most iconic watches, it has become one of the defining bracelet designs of the vintage watch world.
The 7-Row Beads of Rice faithfully recreates that classic design in a yellow gold-plated finish inspired by vintage JB bracelets. Alternating brushed and polished surfaces flow from the links through the clasp, giving the bracelet a warm, understated look that pairs naturally with both vintage and contemporary yellow gold watches.
