Today's offering showcases this stunning platinum diamond Tiffany & Co. watch made by Hamilton for the prestigious retailer.
The Hamilton Watch Co., America's most iconic vintage watch firm and one of its finest wristwatch makers, built treasured timepieces that are still cherished by many today. During their peak years, which lasted from the 30's into the 60's, the Pennsylvania establishment developed a reputation for innovation and quality.
We were fortunate to obtain it with original parts down to the dial, hands, and even winding crown.
Bejewelled with radiant original factory set diamonds over all the bezel and tops of the lugs, the finely decorated platinum case is stunning!
It is in very pleasing condition, appearing to have been worn carefully in appreciation of its quality and value.
Its silver Tiffany & Co. dial has been previously restored in vintage times. Its platinum and diamond case is near mint plus.
One of our watchmakers has disassembled it down to its last screw and cleaned and oiled its well-made "gold medallion movement, and we have fitted it with a brand new black cord strap made to replicate the original, making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate.
If you are looking for a special treasure for someone in your life, this is it. Modern Tiffany watches don't match the charm and romance of this vintage original.
