Founded in 1874 by George Paiget, the Maison has long been celebrated for its mastery in crafting luxury watches. Yet, transcending the mere measurement of time, the brand’s dedication to the art of fine jewellery craftsmanship has been an integral part of its identity since 1959.
In a harmonious interplay between these two worlds, Piaget’s timepieces redefine opulence by seamlessly fusing precious stones with the art of watchmaking. The result? Unique creations that evoke a sense of sublime beauty, where every piece tells a story of craftsmanship and refined artistry.
The latest addition to their collection, The Piaget Polo Emperador Skeleton Tourbillon High Jewellery watch is a beautiful masterpiece set in diamonds and emeralds. Crafted in Piaget’s High Jewellery workshops in La Côte-Aux-Fées, this 49 mm-diameter timepiece joins the architectural legacy of the Altiplano 910P, introducing a new complication to the Maison’s iconic Piaget Polo.
Powered by the 1270D movement, a lavish rendition of the initial automatic tourbillons in Polo Emperador watches, like the 1270P or the skeletonised 1270S, this watch is a true work of art. In the world of Piaget, luxury isn’t confined solely to the ticking hands of a watch but extends to the meticulous details of every gemstone placed. Creating magic like this demands an eye for detail, involving 100 hours to set the movement and case, along with an additional forty hours to hand-set the diamonds on the flanks of the tourbillion. The watch dial features an enchanting oscillating weight set with trapeze-cut emeralds. Another captivating detail signature letter ‘P’ marking the seconds on the flying tourbillon.
Perfectly complimenting you Christmas look, the Piaget Polo Emperador Skeleton Tourbillon High Jewellery watch is available in various gem settings. It stands as a true testament to the brand’s unparalleled ability to blend the realms of watchmaking and craftsmanship – making each piece not just an accessory but a statement of timeless elegance.
