A double signed Speedmaster with Omega and a retailer is a rare feature in its own right, however doubly so for the present lot as it is signed by the legendary American retailer, Tiffany & Co.
Three different styles of font for the Tiffany signature have been identified, with the present version being the earliest recognized. Additionally, the present lot, with confirmed original delivery to the United States, features hand scratched Tiffany & Co. inventory numbers to the back of the top left lug. The dial itself has aged with a very dark attractive matte finish and dark patina to the tritium markers and hands.
