Tiffany & Co. Diamond and Platinum Wristwatch by Agassiz
This lovely wristwatch exudes the iconic elegance of the Art Deco Era. It was expertly crafted in an exquisitely designed case of gleaming platinum by Agassiz for Tiffany & Co. The tonneau-shaped case not only boasts a sparkling diamond bezel, but also beautifully engraved foliate embellishment on every side. Even the winding crown is finely beaded and engraved with a flower. Keeping the time within is a 17 jewel manual wind high grade movement, while the time displays on a silvered dial with bold Arabic numerals and blued steel Breguet-style hands.
Auguste Agassiz established his family watchmaking business in Switzerland in the 1830s. The firm grew to acclaim for producing high-quality watches and continues today under the Longines name. It also bears mentioning that the dial for this watch was made by Stern Frères, a Swiss supplier of individually crafted watch dials for prestigious watch brands.
This stunning Art Deco era wristwatch remains wonderfully relevant today as a classic and versatile piece. Further it has undergone a complete restoration and carries an 18-month warranty.
