The Good
This 42mm Chronograph is a stunning example of absolute luxury, masculine elegance, fine Swiss craftsmanship, precision timekeeping, historic tradition, and sheer quality.
Featuring a calendar date, a Chronograph subdial and an additional 30 minute subdial (subdials located at the 9 and 3 o’clock positions, respectively), the CT60 features a gorgeous, textured, Rose Gold dial that is you won’t be able to look away from.
The Soleil dial features on this Rose Gold dial perfectly complement the texture of the dial and subdial circles. In addition to the Gold Poudré Arabic numerals, keeping time never looked so good.
Tiffany & Co. ups the ante with a water resistance to 100 meters (that’s 10 ATM / 330 feet). You can remain worry-free if you accidently get this timepiece wet. If you change out the leather strap, you can take this luxury timepiece with you swimming the reef or off the starboard of your yacht.
