Nice vintage there. Watch looks original, but bracelet has been slapped on later at some stage (maybe 'cause the original strap broke?)

That is a nice watch! Of course the 750 =18k, but what do the double square with .12, and the ladies head symbols mean?

That's right a hallmark for 18K, I think they current hallmark has changed to an animal

That is correct, since 1995 it looks like this.
