Note du spécialiste

Only the most cursory of glances will be sufficient to the connoisseur of vintage watches to fall under the spell of the incredibly well preserved black gloss dial of the present piece. The gloss finish is virtually unperturbed by the passage of time and the luminous material acquired a captivating chestnut tonality. The Tiffany signature – among the most coveted in the world of vintage watch collecting – further boosts the appeal and collectability of this superb timepiece.
