Why We Love it
–There’s nothing more classic and appealing than a simple dress watch.
Though to be fair, when we say “simple,” we mean “uncomplicated” — not unattractive! The 21st century saw a plethora of such watches hit the market. Generally available on leather straps and featuring two or three hands, these reliable wristwatches kept time during the classiest decades of the past 100 years. However, some were more innovative than others.
This particular piece from Piaget, specialists in ultra-thin watchmaking, offers something a bit different...
Housed in a 35mm, yellow gold coin-edged case, it features a hinged front opening made out of a circa 1887 $20 coin, a matching $20 coin caseback, and a square pusher to open the front. Inside, an additional hinge allows the 'watch' to fold upwards, revealing a lovely sunburst 'salmon' dial with a pencil handset and a manual winding movement within.
Eye catching and eyebrow raising, this unusual piece is an exercise in out-of-the-box thinking that is exactly what we love about Piaget.
Brand Story
+
Brand Story
+In 1960, Piaget released the Calibre 12P, the thinnest automatic movement in the world at the time, at just 2.3mm. It fitted many of its miniature movements into innovative timepieces hidden in coins, brooches, and cufflinks, becoming known equally for its jewelry.
The Piaget Altiplano Ultimate, released as a concept in 2018, became a full production model in 2020. At just 2mm thick, it took the record for thinnest watch on Earth. Today, Piaget continues to innovate in the realm of ultra-thin watchmaking, creating ultra-thin tourbillons, retrograde movements, and more.
