Piaget Black Tie Mecanique

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 20th 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.

Take this exquisite piece from Piaget, specialists in ultra-thin watchmaking: it’s as much akin to a piece of jewelry as it is to a more traditional wristwatch.

Housed in a 28mm 18K white gold, stepped case with a fantastic 'hobnail' pattern, signed crown and sapphire crystal, this Piaget features a striking black dial with quadrant indices and jumbo hour markers.

Powered by a manually-wound movement, and flaunting a svelte profile at just 6mm in case thickness, this piece calls back to an Art Deco styling while still living as an exceptional choice as a modern timepiece — perfect for any formal sartorial endeavor or a night out with some friends.

With its eye-catching design, fascinating dial, and awesome hobnail pattern, this is a standout timepiece appropriate for virtually any wrist. While these beautiful Piaget pieces from the late 20th century went underappreciated for many years, we have recently seen a deserved surge in interest for these avant-garde designs.

Catch this one before it’s gone!
