Collector's item! Rare Vintage Air King Co-Branding "Tiffany's NY"
Extremely rare specimen! Since I purchased it without papers, I had the watch examined by an accredited appraiser. There is a detailed appraisal that confirms authenticity and assesses its condition. The appraisal can be viewed beforehand.

The stainless steel bracelet is a replacement band with no brand markings.
Generic bracelet
Extremely rare piece! Since I purchased it without papers, I had the watch appraised by an accredited expert (accredited by the expert council of the central association of German jewelers). A detailed appraisal is available. Condition according to the appraisal: 1 = very good The stainless steel bracelet is a replacement strap without any brand markings. The dial is double-signed, as the watch was produced exclusively for the "Tiffany & Co." flagship store in New York with co-branding. From the 1950s to the early 1990s, Rolex watches with co-branding (both logos on the dial) were sold through Tiffany stores
