Rebecca's Pick
Produced by the very well-recognized jeweler, Tiffany & Co., the present watch has a multitude of interesting features. Five minute repeating on two gongs, the chimes heard are those of the hours and then every five minute interval thereafter. The case is beautifully executed with a thick gold monogram in relief to the case back. The monogram is consistent with the name on the cuvette and reads: "HCW". Presumably offered from father to son, the cuvette is engraved; "HARRY WYMAN FROM WALTER C. WYMAN, JANUARY 29TH, 1927, L.W.P, F.W.I."Lastly, the dial has a rich gilt color, eccentrically formed numerals, and decorative hands that give this watch an Art Deco appeal. The case and movement are both signed, "Tiffany & Co."
