Piaget Onyx Dial

There’s nothing more classic and appealing than a simple dress watch.

Though to be fair, when we say ‘simple’, we mean ‘uncomplicated’ — not unattractive! The 20th century saw a plethora of such watches hit the market. Generally available on leather straps and featuring two or three hands, these reliable wristwatches kept time during the classiest decades of the past 100 years. However, some were more innovative than others.

Take this exquisite piece from Piaget, specialists in ultra-thin watchmaking: it’s as much akin to a piece of jewelry as it is to a more traditional wristwatch.

Housed in a 23mm, yellow gold case with a fantastic, integrated 'woven' yellow gold bracelet, this Piaget features a striking onyx dial with a matching 'dauphine' handset, and Piaget's svelte Calibre 9P1 hand-winding movement within.

Imagine the looks of curiosity — and envy — that you’ll stir up when rocking this beautiful Piaget at a cocktail party. With its eye-catching design, deep black dial, and awesome bracelet, this is a standout timepiece appropriate for virtually any wrist.

While these beautiful Piaget pieces from the late 20th century went underappreciated for many years, we have recently seen a deserved surge in interest for these avant-garde designs.

Catch this one before it’s gone!

Piaget is perhaps the foremost player in ultra-thin watches and watch movements in the world. Established in 1874 in Geneva and currently under the Richemont Group umbrella, the maison began producing wristwatch movements in 1911, manufacturing the Calibre 9P, its first ultra-thin, hand-wound mechanical movement, in 1957.

In 1960, Piaget released the Calibre 12P, the thinnest automatic movement in the world at the time, at just 2.3mm. It fitted many of its miniature movements into innovative timepieces hidden in coins, brooches, and cufflinks, becoming known equally for its jewelry.

The Piaget Altiplano Ultimate, released as a concept in 2018, became a full production model in 2020. At just 2mm thick, it took the record for thinnest watch on Earth. Today, Piaget continues to innovate in the realm of ultra-thin watchmaking, creating ultra-thin tourbillons, retrograde movements, and more.
