Piaget Watches

Established in 1874, Piaget always has a diverse offering of watches in its collection. On the high dollar side of Piaget watches, at Sotheby’s in April 1997, a Piaget extra-flat watch worn by Jackie Kennedy fetched $55,000. In addition to the glittering gem set wonders, Piaget also offers simple elegant designs for men and women in ultra-thin mechanical and quartz watches.

The new Piaget Emperador collection features beautiful tonneau shaped watches with eight-day manual wind movements. The dial design incorporates a jumping hour display with center minute hand, sub-seconds and a subtle power reserve on an elegantly engraved white dial. The 18k white gold face is on a black crocodile strap. The shape of today’s Emperador is inspired by a Piaget design from 1958—a shape that has earned its classic designation by being as attractive and timeless today as it was in its previous incarnation.

Another mechanical offering from Piaget is the rectangular l’Ancienne collection. The softly rounded rectangle displays a power reserve time date and sub-seconds on a modern Roman numeral display dial. L’Ancienne is available cased in 18k white or pink gold and will be limited to 125 pieces. The Dancer by Piaget has a bracelet design that takes a rounded link theme to create a statement. The suppleness of the bracelet echoes this feeling. With or without added diamonds, the Dancer is an elegant watch with Piaget panache.
