Why We Love it

–

There’s nothing more enduring than a dress watch that knows exactly what it is. And the Polo’s moment is back, back, back again!

And in the case of the Piaget Polo ‘Baby’ ref. 8243, that clarity comes with a wink. Because while it may be smaller, more refined, and technically “uncomplicated,” there’s nothing quiet about it. Introduced at the height of Piaget’s 1980s golden era, the Polo wasn’t just a watch—it was a statement. A seamless interplay of case, bracelet, and dial that feels less assembled than sculpted, stacked gold bars.

This particular example, which we like to call a “Baby” Polo, distills that idea into a more intimate 19mm 18K yellow gold form. The signature gadrooned pattern flows uninterrupted from bracelet to dial, catching light in a way that feels almost kinetic. Dauphine hands glide across the surface, while inside, a slim quartz movement keeps things precise and effortless—very much in line with Piaget’s vision of elegance at the time.

It’s easy to think of the Polo as a product of its era, but pieces like this feel surprisingly current. The scale, the jewelry-forward design, the confidence—it aligns perfectly with how watches are worn now.

Piaget was doing something different back then. And right now, it’s landing all over again.

Brand Story

Piaget is perhaps the foremost player in ultra-thin watches and watch movements in the world. Established in 1874 in Geneva and currently under the Richemont Group umbrella, the maison began producing wristwatch movements in 1911, manufacturing the Calibre 9P, its first ultra-thin, hand-wound mechanical movement, in 1957.

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.
