The Christmas and it is normal for the less far-sighted to start picking on the whole business of gifts. For gas station attendants, the offer of gifts is very varied, with both cheap and expensive options, but certainly this one is one of the latter self-watch from Tiffany & Co take the palm
It is, apparently, a simple table clock whose design is inspired by the racing cars of the fifties, but just look at its price to understand that it is very simple: 215,000 dollars, which at current exchange rates are almost 204,000 euros.
How can it be so expensive? To begin with, the mere fact that it is a product from a well-known jewelery shop already means high prices, but what adds to the bill is that it has numerous diamondsboth in the circumference surrounding the watch and in the center of the circles.
Furthermore, there is also the fact of the intricate design of the clock itself, whose mechanism is visible from the sides and from the small dome placed where the pilot’s head would go, the aluminum that forms the bulk of the design, the stainless steel of the rims and also the fact that it is a limited edition product .
While it appears small in the pictures, it measures nearly 15.5″ (39cm) long, nearly 6″ (16cm) wide and nearly 4.75″ (12cm) high, to which it adds a weight of 4.67 kilos.
If the Tiffany & Co watch car seems too expensive to you, you can always opt for the cheap versionwhich costs “only” 40,000 dollars, which in return is just under 38,000 euros.
For practical purposes, it is the same product and has identical characteristics (design, size, weight) except that there are no diamonds, which is what reduces your bill by more than 80%.
