WATCHES & WONDERS 2022
P
iaget’s philosophy has been to always push the limits, to challenge what exists, and as Valentin Piaget frequently liked to say, “to do what has never been done before.” At this year’s Watches and Wonders Geneva, Piaget showcases its high watchmaking skills and expertise through a unique ground-breaking timepiece as well as its gemsetting proficiency in a wide array of new releases.
DARE TO DREAM Following last year’s release of the Altiplano Ultimate Concept (AUC) with a green dial in reference to La Côte-aux-Fées, where it all started, Piaget recently unveiled a unique Altiplano Ultimate Concept which pays tribute to the first “beats” of this ground-breaking timepiece. In essence, this one-of-a-kind watch uniquely brings together several stylistic details that recall the incredible journey of the timepiece that won the prestigious Aiguille d’Or prize from the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève. Case in point: the Piaget logo at the top of the dial is in a historic font that is the same typeface used in the logo above the manufacture in La Côte-aux-Fées, the village where Piaget was born and remains today.
