Full-Cataloguing
- Exudes 1970s glamour and style, something Piaget is best known for
- Preserved in almost unworn condition
- Accompanied by original accessories
The 1970s were an era of superb creativity and unbounded design, and this is fully reflected in the timepieces of the period. In fact, Piaget was at the forefront of this trend, drawing on its know-how as a jeweller and watchmaker. They realized some of their most exquisite and outstanding creations during this time. Their use of coloured hardstones coupled with whimsical integrated bracelet designs has gifted the collecting community with some of the most fascinating bracelet watches ever devised, and even today reflections of their mid-century creations at times echo in their current pieces.
The present watch features a lapis lazuli dial and white gold case, suspended by two ribbed (even tubogas-like) bracelets giving incredible presence on the wrist. It is an eye-catching statement piece that even after 40 years will still impress the most sophisticated collectors not only with its impeccable taste and style, but also with its absolutely pristine - virtually mint - state of preservation.
Piaget
Swiss | 1874Creativity, audacity and know-how are the values that gave Piaget its international reputation and allowed the brand to distinguish itself in the world of fine watchmaking and precision. Founder Georges Edouard Piaget established the company in 1874 and manufactured watch movements. While Piaget is famously recognized today for their elaborate wristwatch and bangle designs, they also mastered the marriage of their high-quality, in-house-produced wristwatches and stunning pieces of jewelry.
Collectors consider the 1970s as Piaget's era of superb creativity and unbounded designs. During this highly creative period, the brand designed an impressive range of cuff and bracelet watches carved in gold and adorned with exotic hard stones. Admired by most as not only jewelry but also true works of art, the firm's hard stone dial watches remain the most iconic, recognizable and desirable among collectors.
