  • Catalogue Essay

    The present white gold and diamond-set Piaget wristwatch from the 1970’s reflects the style of the era. Featuring a white gold integrated bracelet with faux crocodile leathered texture is an interesting example of the innovative period of bracelet designs and construction. Preserved in excellent overall condition and featuring a glossy black dial set with diamond indexes, the watch is an excellent timepiece for an important black tie event.

  • Artist Biography

    Piaget

    Swiss • 1874

    Creativity, 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.
