  • Catalogue Essay

    This present watch allows the wearer to dive into Paris' history and culture of love and romance. Its upper case is crafted in honour of the most emblematic Parisian monument, topped by 60 baguette-cut diamonds weighing approximately 4.60 carats and 500 brilliant-cut diamonds weighing approximately 3.50 carats. Below lies an ultra-thin mechanical watch, the glittering cover depicts the arches of Eiffel Tower that frames an hourglass filled with sparkling tiny gold balls, which move freely with the movements of the wrist. Presented in excellent overall condition, this timepiece glimmers and sparkles throughout the day and night like the famous Eiffel Tower.

  • 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.
