Piaget Altiplano Mechanical Silver Dial Black Leather Men's Watch G0A35152

This is a very pretty Piaget watch. It was a Christmas gift for my daughter. She has trouble wearing watches but this one causes her no problems. The band fits her larger wrist where many bands are too small. She has had compliments on her new watch. It arrived before Christmas as promised.

Unusual shapes, vivid colours and rare materials: Piaget showed great creative daring during the 1960s and 70s through its interpretations of the free and non-conformist spirit typical of the era. During these crazy years and thanks to models featuring atypical designs, Piaget became the favourite brand of many celebrities and members of the international jet-set.

Two models symbolising this period brimming with creativity are now being re-edited: the traditional oval watch, which we are presenting today, and the Black Tie vintage inspiration, introduced last week on WorldTempus.

One watch in particular, with its oval case set with diamonds and emeralds, its jade dial as well as its distinctive, delicately engraved bracelet, became a firm favourite among the most stylish peronsalities of the decade. Interpreted in a number of variations, this model
is part of the Piaget heritage and its bracelet has become an authentic brand signature.

 To highlight the jewellery dimension of this new creation, a silver-toned oval dial offsets the line of diamonds adorning the bezel. Claw setting enables each stone to play a seductive game with light. Elegance, beauty and refinement: the Piaget traditional oval watches in white or rose gold is exclusively available through boutiques.
 

This year's collection inspired by this legendary watch perpetuates the tradition of Piaget goldsmithing, a skill conveyed through the delicately crafted bracelet. The elegantly hand-crafted "palace" finish gives the bracelet an almost iridescent effect. The elegantly hand-engraved "palace" finish gives the bracelet an almost iridescent effect. Inspired by Haute Couture methods, the reverse side of the bracelet most vividly displays the technical virtuosity of the Maison. The multitude of assembled links creates a refined overall effect, within which each part is precisely fashioned to form an incomparable light gold "fabric". The bracelet is fitted directly to the case so as to form a single case and bracelet ensemble.

WORLDTEMPUS - 27 October 2011

"I fully understand why other watch companies do not make super-slim watches," Piaget CEO Philippe Leopold-Metzger told Worldtempus from a sunny terrace in Seville, where Piaget showed its new Altiplano Skeleton.
The Altiplano is an impressive timepiece. This is not only due to the fact that it is already powered by the thinnest automatic movement available on the market with a slender height of 2.4 millimeters. The Altiplano is also the thinnest automatic watch with a case height of only 5.34 millimeters.

True artisans
Leopold-Metzger's remark was a salute to the master craftsmen behind the watch who had to pretty much create the impossible: skeletonizing an already slim and - therefore - fragile movement: Caliber 1200S. Skeletonizing, also known as open-working, reveals only the most vital parts of the movement structure. In this case it was achieved without losing the well-known, luxurious look of a Piaget movement with its own decor and inner beauty.
"This is a task reserved for only a few of the world's most talented artisans," Leopold-Metzger claimed, indicating that Piaget employs some of the most talented hands in the Swiss watch business. "Mind you, at Piaget we do not ask external and independent watchmakers to design a movement for us. We do everything ourselves," Leopold-Metzger underlined the strength of the watch company that he has captained for the last 12 years.

The choice of Steve Jobs?
We wanted to know from Leopold-Metzger why Piaget is so keen on being the master of the slim watch when some of its closest competitors are exploring new and exotic materials and multiple mechanical functions. "Piaget is an elegant company, offering elegant watches. But we are also very much movement makers, talking a lot about our calibers and how we put much effort into the aesthetics of our movements. Our super slim watches offer elegant simplicity, and I think that our Altiplano is a watch that Steve Jobs would have worn due to the extraordinary simplicity of the design." Jobs would probably not have protested against this remark, as Piaget's Altiplano indeed reflects elegance and simplicity paired with incredible technological features.
Tough job
Even though the Piaget Altiplano may look simple, creating its super slim movement certainly is not, as some of its components are as thin as 0.12 millimeter. On top of that, the Altiplano Skeleton is elegantly finished: a blackened platinum rotor elegantly decorated with Piaget's coat of arms rotates against the backdrop of a movement featuring satin-brushed, hand-sawed and hand-beveled plates and bridges. This caliber has been painstakingly skeletonized, yet the time is still very visible due to the blackened dauphine hands that provide a much needed contrast to the satinized, sunray-polished movement.

Masters of the ultra-thin
With this new open-worked model, it is hard to see how Piaget will be able to come up with another record-breaking Altiplano. The Skeleton version has been stripped down to its bare essentials, and it would take an even slimmer movement to move this new model out of the champion's circle: Piaget is indeed the "Master of Ultra-Thin Movements."
The Altiplano Skeleton has a case diameter of 38 millimeters and is only offered in 18-karat white gold. Suggested retail price is 50,000 Swiss francs.
