It is the petite version of the man’s “Eiffel Tower” 2242. Not only is the stylish design of the man’s “Eiffel Tower” model retained, but it is now even more amiable in a dainty case. This model is affectionately dubbed by collectors as "Mistinguett", the name of a French actress and singer who was at one time the highest-paid female entertainer in the world. To our best knowledge, only about 20 yellow gold examples are known to exist. With an unmissable retro flare, the present lot is definitely an elegant timepiece. Our research shows that the present watch is fresh to the market and the 19th known example to come to auction, making it an exquisite timepiece to possess.
