Good evening everyone.
Today we have a rare W-name model in stock, so we would like to introduce it to you! Please enjoy until the end!
"Ref.5712/1A-001"
"Nautilus Petit Complication TIFFANY & CO." SS
The "Ref. 5712/1A-001" was released in 2006, the 30th anniversary of the Nautilus, as the successor to the "Ref. 3712/1A-001," the first Nautilus to feature a long-awaited complex mechanism.
It has been almost 20 years since it was released, but it is still a cool model that has not faded. What's more, the watch we are introducing this time is not a regular model, but a popular and rare double-name model with [TIFFANY & CO.]. I think you can tell how rare it is without any explanation.
Before we get into the main topic, let's briefly talk about the relationship between TIFFANY & CO. and Patek Philippe .
Patek Philippe and Tiffany & Co. have a long history together, with Patek Philippe watches being sold at Tiffany boutiques in the United States from 1851 to the present. It may not be widely known, but Tiffany & Co. is in fact the oldest retailer of Patek Philippe in the United States.
In 2008, the first Patek Philippe salon in the United States opened in Tiffany's flagship store on New York's 5th Avenue. In 2013, to commemorate the fifth anniversary, Tiffany released a limited edition of the Annual Calendar Ref. 5396G.
Also fresh in our memory is the surprise announcement of the Nautilus Ref. 5711/1A-018 in 2021, the 170th anniversary of the watch.
Only 170 pieces were made, and they were only sold at Tiffany & Co. boutiques in New York, Beverly Hills, and San Francisco. The colorful "Tiffany Blue" lacquer dial and the Tiffany & Co. logo at the 6 o'clock position make it instantly recognizable as a Tiffany & Co. double-brand model.
The skeleton screw-back glass is printed with "170th ANNIVERSARY" at the top, "1851 - 2021" in the center, and "TIFFANY & CO - PATEK PHILIPPE" at the bottom, making it a special piece down to the smallest details.
Let's get back to the main topic here. The "Ref. 5712/1A-001," like the "Ref. 5711/1A," features a gradient black-blue dial with a small seconds hand (at the 4-5 o'clock position), moon phase and date hand display (at the 7-8 o'clock position), and power reserve display (at the 10-11 o'clock position), resulting in an exquisite design with nothing wasted.
And above all, the most important feature is the letters [TIFFANY & CO.] written at the 5-6 o'clock position on the dial. You might think that it should be written larger, but since it is a [Patek Philippe] watch, it may be that the size of the logo is small so as not to interfere with the dial design, as a sign of the mutual trust and respect between [Patek Philippe] and [TIFFANY & CO.].
The movement visible through the sapphire crystal skeleton case back is the "Cal.240 PS IRM C LU" based on the ultra-thin automatic movement "Cal.240". Even though it is equipped with a petite complication mechanism, the case diameter is kept to 8.52mm, so there is absolutely no stress when wearing it.
The accessories include a warranty, a letter from Tiffany, a leather pass case, booklets, adjustment pins, extra links, and a Tiffany blue paper box that can store the outer box unique to the W name, making it a must-have for collectors. Although it has been polished in the past, it is currently in good condition with no noticeable scratches or scuffs.
The selling price is 27,940,000 yen (tax included)

There are very few double-name models with TIFFANY & CO. on the market, and the "Ref. 5712/1A-001", like the "Ref. 5711/1A", is one of the most popular and extremely rare models.
