Tiffany & Co. introduces the new Tiffany Airways mechanical clock. Inspired by the aircraft industry and the spirit of flight in the '30s, the Tiffany Airways watch is crafted from classic Tiffany Blue steel to celebrate the brand's rich heritage and the playful spirit that permeates Tiffany's designs, reflecting the brand's commitment to exploration and innovation.
Inspired by the architecture of an aircraft, the skeletonized design of the Tiffany Airways not only reveals the intricate skeleton-like structure of the movement, but also further highlights the escapement in the "cockpit". The chronograph display of the hours and minutes is located on a large stainless steel disc at the nose of the aircraft, while the arrow shape at the front of the cockpit precisely indicates the current time.
At the nose, Tiffany & Co. has crafted a lightweight steel propeller that rotates flexibly at the touch of a button. Behind the propellers, the plane's engine radiator acts as the "crown" that winds the clock's movement. Rotate the engine clockwise, and the steel disc can be moved to set the time; A counterclockwise rotation winds the movement, making it run like an airplane engine, with a power reserve of eight days.
Weighing about 3 kilograms, measuring 35 centimeters long, 44 centimeters wide and 27 centimeters high, this clock is meticulously crafted in Switzerland. Equipped with functional wheels that mimic traditional landing gear, the craftsmen give the overall shape a unique and well-balanced aesthetic. Thanks to this ingenious architecture, the Tiffany Airways clock can be displayed on its own or attached to a stand with a novel buckle design to create a visual effect of soaring.
