Here is something you don't see everyday. A rare Tiffany & Co. fake watch that I just can't seem to figure out. I learned of this fake watch as it is being offered on eBay right now with no end date until someone purchases it. The seller claims that it is a Tiffany & Co. fake watch built by NauticFish, and I am not sure this is correct. It is true that Tiffany & Co. often rebrands or adds its name to other popular replica watches sold in its store. It used to do this with Replica Rolex, and currently does with a variety of brands including Baume et Mercier. Further, Tiffany & Co. often outsources fake watch design, just as it did with the popular Streamerica fake watch (no longer being made) designed by Jorg Hysek.
Therefore, it is plausible that Tiffany & Co. worked with NauticFish or Enzo Mechana, but it is doubtful in this case. NauticFish is a new brand that started in 1998 as an offshoot from Schaumburg replica watches in Germany. I don't know of any Tiffany & Co. relationships with German fake watch makers, but it is possible. Second, the specific NauticFish model that the pictured Tiffany & Co. resembles, came out in the last few years, and the seller of this fake watch claims that it was released in the 1990s. So that does not add up. It is further possible that NauticFish took design elements from this fake watch when it was designing its own Pro Diver 1000m watch. Looking at the two, you will no doubt see the striking similarity in bezel design, though the Tiffany uses a common Tiffany & Co. faces now most notable on the Mark T-57 line of watches.
Advertising MessageAside from the bezel design, the replica watches have many small differences. From the case design, and other little details. Because fake watch "flattery?is so common, It would not surprise me if someone was copying someone else. Though again, it is possible this was the result of a partnership between Tiffany & Co. and NauticFish, or Enzo Mechana.
Actually, I am going to dispel NauticFish's involvement for the most part as this case is certainly an Enzo Mechana EM001 case. Enzo Mechana is an interesting fake watch brand with a few basic but intriguing designs. The Logo on the back of the case is the Enzo Mechana (EM) logo. What most likely occurred is that a dedicated fake watch lover carefully placed a Tiffany & Co movement and face into an Enzo Mechana case.
The Tiffany & Co. diver fake watch in question is very sparsely labeled, aside from the Enzo Mechana logo on the back. You know that it is an automatic (inside is a Swiss ETA 2892-2), and that it is a certified chronometer. Some of you might be thinking that the spare information about this fake watch signifies that it may be a fake or some Frankenstein watch. This is unlikely as it is common for short lived Tiffany & Co. replica watches to have little historical information available about this. Again, this is common with the Streamerica, which is another beautiful watch.
Advertising MessageOverall I have a deep appreciation for NauticFish, Enza Mechana, and Tiffany & Co. watches, although in my humble opinion, I don't think these companies collaborated in this effort. The time frames just don't add up, and the replica watches have enough differences to make the relationship unlikely. Besides, you'd think that at least NauticFish or Enzo Mechana would have press releases reminding its customers of the relationship. Regardless, I could be proven wrong. This unlabeled fake watch remains a tantalizing piece of Tiffany & Co. history that shows the fake watch maker knows how to beguile its fans. Or it is simply fan work well done. I like this fake watch a lot. With a bit of cleaning and a polish, you'll get a very solid piece to any rounded collection.
