1970's PULSAR Vintage Ladies 14K Gold Plated & Diamond Watch - OWNED & WORN BY ACTRESS LORETTA YOUNG
Full Provenance - Part of our New Celebrity Collection - 1 Year Warranty Today's offering showcases this 1960's or retro style bracelet watch personally owned and well-worn by the Academy Award winning actress, Loretta Young. It appears to have been one of the actress's favorite watches at the time as it is very well-loved. It has a lovely design and is gold plated over base metals with a diamond on the dial at twelve o'clock. It is also accompanied by a bracelet and pin of Ms. Young's. Loretta Young: A successful child star who began her career at only four years old, Ms. Young had a long and varied career in film from 1917 to 1953 before transitioning to television. In 1934 she co-starred with Cary Grant in Born to Be Bad and in 1935 was cast with Clark Gable and Jack Oakie in the film version of Jack London's The Call of the Wild, directed by William Wellman. Young made as many as eight movies a year. In 1947, she won an Oscar for her performance in The Farmer's Daughter. That same year, she co-starred with Cary Grant and David Niven in The Bishop's Wife, a perennial favorite. In 1949, she received another Academy Award nomination for Come to the Stable. In 1953, she appeared in her last theatrical film, It Happens Every Thursday, a Universal comedy about a New York couple who move to California to take over a struggling weekly newspaper; her co-star was John Forsythe. That same year, 1953, she made her last film and transitioned to starring in television, a relatively new medium at the time, in her dramatic anthology series, "The Loretta Young Show." The series earned three Emmy Awards, and was re-run successfully on daytime TV and later in syndication. The program ran in prime time on NBC for eight years, the longest-running primetime network program hosted by a woman up to that time. In the 1980s, Young returned to the small screen and won a Golden Globe for her role in Christmas Eve in 1986. In 1988, Young received the Women in Film Crystal Award for outstanding women who through their endurance and the excellence of their work helped expand the role of women in the entertainment industry. Young has two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame: one for her work in television, at 6135 Hollywood Boulevard, and the other for her work in motion pictures, at 6100 Hollywood Boulevard. In 2011, a Golden Palm Star on the Walk of Stars, in Palm Springs, California, was dedicated to her. Her watch has been left untouched just as we acquired it and how Loretta Young wore it except for any needed servicing performed on the movement by one of our watchmakers. A new crystal was installed to make it ready for immediate wearing and enjoyment. We left as much of the watch preserved in its original state as possible. Also accompanying the watch from her estate is a lovely pearl or simulated pearl fashion jewelry bracelet and a pin with an unknown logo that appears to be gold plated. Included with the purchase is a one-year our international warranty on the movement and its function and a full-page custom printed Certificate of Authenticity from our company. Don't miss this very rare opportunity to have a well-documented watch personally owned and well-loved by Loretta Young herself.
