Everywhere one turns, one is confronted by watches of good quality and solid build — and this is to say nothing of pieces from high-end independents and practitioners of \u003cem\u003ehaute horlogerie\u003c\/em\u003e. But for those who crave a hand-made quality — a certain j\u003cem\u003ee ne sais quois\u003c\/em\u003e that often feels absent from modern timepiece production — looking to the past can provide an answer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePiaget’s mid-20th century output, for instance, heralded a creative renaissance in dial design — one in which semi-precious stones, colored metals, unusual shapes, and innovative bracelets held sway. Today, these vintage pieces have captured the imagination of collectors in search of something just a wee bit left of center. Take this incredible ‘Twin Time’ with a tiger’s eye dial in yellow gold, for example.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMasters of ultra-thin watchmaking, Piaget outfitted a 34mm yellow gold case with dual hand-wound movements to provide the wearer with the time in two time zones. Measuring just 8.5mm tall, the case features dual crowns at 3 an 9 o’clock, an acrylic crystal, and a smooth, polished bezel. The dial, fashioned from a piece of magnificent tiger’s eye stone, features horizontal striping behind dual left and right dials, each of which features painted ‘Roman’ and ‘dash’ indices as well as an ‘alpha’ handset.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the collector in search of an offbeat approach to the dual-time complication, this magnificent, precious-metal piece from Piaget offers a revelatory answer. Paired to a black leather alligator strap with a yellow gold pin buckle, it promises many more decades of head-turning wearability and elegant timekeeping.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Piaget","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41278646714455,"sku":"40992105","price":12950.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/files\/AS09996_40992105_PIAGET_YGDUALTIMETIGEREYE_612103-7.jpg?v=1730510152","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/piaget-dual-time-tigers-eye-dress-watch-as09996","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
