Well…
I like the case shape, don’t like the pushers
I like el primero movement, not sure it’s in house; I don’t like the date
The platinum and teal I like
I kind of like the diamonds
Not for me
But I don’t hate it all
Since it's LVMH, everything is in-house under that umbrella...😉
From the Monochrome article:
"Under the hood, the Tiffany Timer houses a movement with great pedigree –
and one that also makes perfect sense from a “Group” perspective with a
customised El Primero 400,
the iconic chronograph from sister brand Zenith. The El Primero 400 is
the most direct descendant of the Zenith integrated, high-frequency
automatic chronograph. It beats at 5Hz and delivers 50 hours of power
reserve."
Yup this is the games the brands play
Maybe it’s right 🤷♂️ I consider in house more of the workshop that the watch is coming from but what do I know?
Plus I like the slight rings around the subdials
Plus I like the slight rings around the subdials
I like it!
I welcome the fact that Tiffany finally took possession of the “Tiffany dial”, and except the “in-house” movement not being in-house it’s an appropriate workhorse for this watch.
I can even accept the diamond markers since judging by the pictures they’re not to massive.
I know the “date police” will criticize it, but it’s acceptable(to me).
And honestly at $55K it’s surely expensive, but compared to what other brands charge for a platinum chronograph, I say it’s reasonable.
The only question is, why are the pushers so big, not PT and white gold clasp???

I’m not sure whether to say “bonza” or “innit”. Let’s go with “Bonza, innit!” !
Apologies to any Australian or English Purists I may have offended. But my qualifications are solid; childhood years of Neighbours, Home and Away, Corrie and Eastenders among others !
Thankfully, they can afford to match the date background with the dial. Not just an off-the-shelf stock part like others use.
It does remind me of........ hmmmmm....... 😉🤣😁😏
I like the dial, but those monstrous pushers and crown, don’t work IMO.
That said, it looks good in the wrist pic.
With them using Zenith movements in their Genta offerings and...
Now this, does anyone get the feeling they are trying to position Zenith as the new "the watchmakers watchmaker?"
Bravo…at least no date window at the 4:30 position…
Agree with others the pushers are huge.
If only the Bird comes with a Rock 😊
Just listened to SJX talking about LV releases and his comment I think on this was it’s essentially Act I. They have more capabilities to build on this.
For a LE 55K watch...
...at least I would expect an individual number on the case, not "Limited edition of 60".
