Navajo watch bracelets are a distinctive category of Native American jewelry, particularly popular from the 1940s through the 1970s. These pieces often feature sterling silver work, turquoise or coral inlays, and leather straps, with a watch face set into the cuff for both functionality and aesthetic appeal. Rodania, a Swiss watch brand founded in 1930, likely supplied the watch movement or face for such custom pieces, as it was common for European watchmakers to provide components for American artisanal jewelry during that era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRodania watches from the mid-20th century (e.g., 1950s–1970s) were hand-wound or early quartz models, often using reliable Swiss calibers like those from Adolf Schild (AS 1977 family). These could be adapted into Navajo cuffs, blending Swiss precision with Southwestern Native American craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antique American Indian Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46895731146917,"sku":"5224-0618","price":495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/6071\/5685\/files\/5224-0618_8.jpg?v=1765301140","url":"https:\/\/antiqueamericanindianart.com\/products\/navajo-sterling-silver-watch-bracelet-by-rodania","provider":"Antique American Indian Art","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
