Catalogue Essay
Only exquisite craftsmanship can create such refined and elegant timepieces. The present watch, entirely set with approximately 10 carats of diamonds and 25 carats of sapphires, is incredibly eye-catching and attractive. The diamond-set dial is surrounded by tapered-cut sapphire and diamond-set bezel. The watch is further enhanced with pavé-set baguette-cut sapphire and diamond bracelet. The gemstones are delicately sculpted onto the bracelet, making it very flexible and comfortable on the wearer’s wrist.
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.
