There’s been more than a little expectation around how Tiffany & Co would do men’s watches since its acquisition by LVMH. The dial is Tiffany blue, applied in 15 layers of lacquer, and there other touches linking the watches to the jewellery collections, including a faceted crown designed to recall the six-pronged Tiffany setting for solitaire rings. The Sixteen Stone Mother-of-Pearl watch (Image credit: Tiffany & Co)More directly inspired by Schlumberger’s original design, the Sixteen Stone Mother-of-Pearl watch, also shown in Milan, references the cross-stitch motif, a nod to the designer's heritage in textile manufacturing. It’s paired with a Tiffany Blue alligator strap, fastened with a diamond-set white gold buckle. Tiffany’s priority is firmly on the jewellery for now, but with a back-catalogue so full of design gems, our watch expectations are high.
