Tiffany Soleste diamond wedding/anniversary ring, 2.7gr. platinum, 0.17ct. tw. $2,500.00 CAD. 121-0226

This versatile ring is from Tiffany’s Soleste line of jewellery. It could be used as wedding ring, anniversary ring, or just a simple right hand ring. Its flat edge and low profile design allow it to pair with most rings. As with the majority of Tiffany designs this one is simple and traditional, but manufactured with the kind of precision not seen in most production jewellery. This is most evident in the method of stone setting. The underside shows perfectly tapered rectangular cutaways to seating the diamonds. Most makers would simply drill round pilot holes to arrange diamond placement, the rectangular holes look more precise, make things easier to clean without compromising strength. The 21 round brilliant cut natural diamonds have been expertly French set in four prong settings with the repeated accuracy that only an experts touch can duplicate over and over. Tiffany only use excellent to ideal cut diamonds and minimum VS clarity with G or better colour for rings like this. The Soleste line is a mainstay of Tiffany jewellery and this ring can be seen in greater detail on their website where it retails at $4,550.00. Our ring shows only minor wear, it remains in excellent condition and was just polished to a bright mirror finish. Constructed using premium 95% pure platinum means great durability and no rhodium plating required to keep it artificially white. This lightly worn Tiffany ring comes with its original black ring box and is offered at 45% less compared to buying new. Estate price $2,500.00 CAD. Stock #121-00226.

1993 Tag Heuer Formula 1 WA1417 28.5mm quartz. $700.00 CAD. 520-00175

If you love watches and are of a certain age you should have fond memories of the original Formula 1 by Tag Heuer. In 1983 the game changing Swatch Watch debuted. These inexpensive Swiss made watches offered accurate, reliable, and above all, fun colourful timekeeping for the masses. Gen X kids with $50.00 cold buy anything in the Swatch lineup. After the success of the Swatch watch a new series of Tag Heuer watches appeared in dealer showcases in 1986. The Tag Heuer Formula 1 added history, cachet, durability and added functionality to the Swatch’s winning formula. The thick hardened glass crystal of the Tag, stainless steel screw on case back, and protected crown, were far superior to the Swatch. Luminous hands, one-way timer bezel, serviceability and a water resistance rating of 200 meters were also well above Swatch specification. Our latest estate watch is this very rare example with dayglow pink hands and dial chapter ring. This is one of the least encountered versions of the 1st generation full stainless steel case F1s. The bright pink highlights of these watches are usually quite faded out after more than 30 years. This one looks almost like new. We tried finding a new OEM black bezel with pink numerals but they haven’t been available for years. The black with white numbers is the closest Tag-Heuer could supply and it looks great. We also installed a new crystal, nylon crystal gasket, battery, case/bracelet cleaning, and case back gasket to get this watch up and running after sitting unused for many years. The flexible Rolex Jubilee style stainless steel bracelet was a pricey upgrade over the black rubber strap base model adding around $150.00 the the cost. The solid link construction is quite good and gives the watch a more luxurious look and feel. A diver extension and flip lock buckle add even more utility to these iconic Formula 1 models. The newest Formula 1 models from Tag Heuer look very much like these originals. Even the colour choices seem to have been inspired by some of the 90s versions. The newest 38mm black/pink F1 is shown on Tag’s website with a retail price of $2,400.00. Ours is for the ladies only given its smaller 28.5mm case diameter. It is in remarkable condition for being 33 years old. It is running great, keeping excellent time and comes with our 1-year warranty. This rare Tag Heuer is estate priced at $700.00 CAD. Stock #520-00175.

1.75ct. tw. SI1-H natural diamond bracelet, 8.6gr. 14kt. (585 diamonds). $3,010.00 CAD. 171-00072

This isn’t the most expensive diamond bracelet we’ve ever had, but I’m quite confident this one contains more diamonds than any bracelet we’ve sold regardless of price. It measures the standard 7 inches in length which is perfect for the average woman’s wrist, but just 5.5mm at the widest point. That’s not a lot of surface area to try to set close to 600 diamonds! Each of one these 17 facet round diamonds has been bead set by hand on every possible section. The result is a sparkling visual assault that can’t be missed. Each of the tiny natural diamonds measures well under 1mm diameter. When diamonds are this small anything better than SI-H clarity look perfect to a naked eye. These diamonds easily make that grade and then some. Crafted from upgraded 14 karat white gold with a total weight of 8.6 grams. It is in excellent condition showing very little wear in the 30 flexible jointed sections. It is secured by a snug fitting plunger clasp. The bracelet comes with a August 2018 appraisal suggesting a retail value of $7,100.00. Even though the price of gold has more than quadrupled since 2018 we feel a more competitive replacement value is more like $4,300.00. As a lightly worn estate item, our price is just $3,010.00 CAD. That price  works out to just over $5.00 per diamond (including the gold). Stock #171-00072.

2022 Tag Heuer Carrera 29mm automatic WBN2411. $2,200.00 CAD. 520-00177

If you follow our estate pages you’ll know we seldom see ladies watches pass through. When they do they are usually quartz models. It is uncommon to see a traditional automatic winding ladies watch in our estate department. When it comes to tradition, the Tag Heuer Carrera is about as established as they come. The classic style debuted in 1963. At the time it was considered very modern looking with clean sharp lines and an easy the read dial layout. Today, there is nothing more classic looking than a Tag Heuer Carrera. The style hasn’t changed at all since Jack Heuer sketched out the original design, aside from different bracelet and strap options over the years. Case size has adapted to modern tastes; the internal mechanisms that started off strictly as hand wind, eventually adapted automatic movements and even some quartz. The classic looks of the Carrera have always been most suited to a mechanical timepiece. The movement inside our latest estate watch is the 18 jewel Tag-Heuer calibre 9. This little Swiss made movement is thoroughly modern in specification, shock protected balance, 40 hour power reserve, 28,800 high frequency beat, three hand display with 31 day calendar. The screw on case back features a transparent display window showcasing the nicely decorated mechanism. Our Carrera features a beautiful navy blue radial finish dial and all stainless steel construction. The lab-grown sapphire crystal is not only super hard, it helps the watch achieve a water resistance rating of 100 meters. We were tempted to polish away some evidence of use but we’ll let the new owner decide whether or not they’d like it polished and refinished. It was purchased in the summer of 2022 at the Tag Heuer Yorkdale Toronto Boutique. The original bill of sale shows a purchase price of $3,100.00 plus sales tax, today this watch shows a retail price of $3,900.00 as seen on the Tag Heuer website. Our watch is running great and keeping time. It comes with the original inner/outer boxes, instructions, original bill of sale, and the endorsed warranty card. The stainless steel bracelet contains the full compliment of adjustment links and shows no sag or stretch. The locking buckle integrates seamlessly with the link pattern providing a safe and secure wearing experience. We are happy to supply the new owner with a complementary 1-year warranty. Estate priced at $2,200.00 CAD. Stock #520-00177.

1.50ct. tw. natural Tanzanite stud earrings, 14kt. 1.0gr. tw. $250.00 CAD. 211-00199

Tanzanite are one of the prettiest gems because of their ability to display different hues in the same stone depending on which direction they are viewed. The potential colours they can display are typically rich blues, violet, reddish/purple and even yellow to green. Almost all tanzanite that make it to market are heat treated, reducing the yellow green elements but maximizing the violet blue colour for which this rare gem is most prized. Even in smaller sizes like our 7mm x 5mm ovals you can see more blue when looking down the length of the stone. When viewed from the top completing blue and violet hues are evident as the they are moved. This 19 second YouTube video shows the potential colour possible in a huge uncut rough specimen. Our two tanzanite are estimated to weight 1.50 carats in total and are set into simple four prong yellow gold settings secured by friction fit butterfly backs.The total weight including the stones is an even 1.00 grams. The set is in perfect condition. The tanzanite show no chips scuffs or scratches. They are estate priced at just $250.00 CAD. Stock #211-00199.
