For more than half a century, Piaget has been a leader in ultra-thin movements. This year is no exception, as it demonstrates its mastery with the Altiplano Ultimate Automatic 910P watch, measuting just 4.30mm thick when cased, it is one of the thinnest mechanical automatic watches in the world. Taking its design cue from caliber 900P (unveiled in 2014) that used a revolutionary new construction joining the case and movement as one piece, the new patent-pending movement in the Altiplano Automatic is the caliber 910P. Three years in the making, it merges the movement and the watch exterior into one whole, wherein the case serves as the mainplate with 219 super-thin components affixed to it. The watch, which measures 41mm in diameter, is crafter in 18K gold and features an off-center display of hours and minutes. This year, Piaget also unveiled the Altiplano Ultimate concept watch - a world record measuring just 2mm.

Deep in the Swiss Jura mountains, Piaget's spirit was brought to life by Georges-Édouard Piaget, a passionate and dedicated watchmaker. From his workshop on the family farm, to the luxury brand it is today, Piaget's personal success story is reflected in the brand's image. A signature of the brand is the ultra-thin watch. Created by Valentin Piaget, the micro-rotor concept set the bar as the thinnest automatic movement in the world. Today, the Altiplano Tourbillon and Paget Polo collections continue to revel in the lightness of this creation, while clear baguette diamonds, blue sapphires and deep rubies embed the pieces. Debuted in 2022, the Piaget Limelight Gala High Jewelry is just as dazzling; the floral bracelet features 18ct white gold, brilliant-cut diamonds and a snow-set dial.
