  • Catalogue Essay

    In the world of complications, the tourbillon is the pinnacle of watchmaking, a symbol of mechanical accuracy able to defy the laws of gravity. The Emperador Tourbillon by Piaget imbued with classicism and discretion is fitted with the ultra-thin shaped tourbillon movement, caliber 600P made entirely in-house that took three years to realise. Just 3.5mm thick, the three bridges of the tourbillon carriage is made of titanium and barely weighs 0.2 grams which fits the wearer’s wrist with absolute comfort. The present Emperador Tourbillon in white case speaks of understated sophistication is preserved in excellent overall condition and is further accompanied by its original warranty and accessories.

  • 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.
