A “perfect storm” for the GMT connoisseur, the present piece incapsulates many - if not all - the rare traits mostly sought-after by collectors in this reference. It bears a flawless gilt/gloss dial, found only in the earlier iterations for this model. The date hand presents a small arrow tip - the so-called “freccino” - another highly prized trait typical of early 1675s.

Of course, the presence of the Tiffany & Co. signature propels the watch to a whole new level of collectability compared to its non-signed brethren, especially considered the fantastic fuchsia insert: the red half of it has faded to this eclectic violet hue in a virtually perfect manner: absolutely even. Most notably, the movement is stamped ROW indicating export to the American market - fitting, considering the signature on the dial. Furthermore, the blue side of the ring remained intense and vibrant, a highly uncommon occurrence which adds to the aesthetic and technical charm of this superb timepiece.
