Piaget - A head-turning ultra-thin model
GMT- Printemps-Ete 2010
The brand is celebrating this landmark anniversary with a new record that once again pushes the limits of watchmaking by presenting the thinnest self-winding calibre on the market. The 1200P movement, a worthy descendant of the 12P calibre introduced in 1960, measures a mere 2.35 mm, equivalent to two stacked CDs. This discreet tribute beats at the heart of the classic Altiplano watch, the thinnest in its category at just 5.25 mm, which does away with unnecessary frills and displays only essentials: the hours and minutes.
This pink or white gold anniversary model is issued in series of 235 per version. Meanwhile, the Limelight Jazz Party watch, the swinging new collection from Piaget, sparkles with dazzling radiance. Its diamond ellipses sway to the rhythm of wrist movements, admirably embodying the creative freedom exercised by Piaget, the consistently playful and ever- inventive watchmaker.
