True watch lovers may say they've seen this watch before. To a degree, that is correct. The Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Concept watch is the final iteration of what began a couple of years ago as a concept watch - now in limited serial production. In fact, that is what makes this watch so special. Often, concept watches do not go into production. But Piaget persevered. The exceptional ultra-thin 41mm watch is the world's thinnest mechanical hand-wound timepiece, measuring just 2mm in thickness (about the thickness of two stacked empty letter envelopes). To achieve this, the Piaget 900P-UC caliber - which was six years in the making and has five patents pending - is merged with the watch.

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.
