Celebrating its 150th anniversary, Piaget is a Swiss brand with a rich history deeply intertwined with watchmaking excellence. Established in 1874 by Georges Edouard Piaget, the brand initially specialized in crafting precision watch movements before transitioning into a renowned watchmaker. In the mid-20th century, Piaget made waves by introducing ultra-thin movements, setting records with Caliber 9P in 1957 and the world’s thinnest automatic movement, Caliber 12P, in 1960. Beyond technical prowess, Piaget seamlessly blends Swiss precision with artistic innovation, particularly in high-jewelry watches. The company’s mastery extended to manufacturing elegant and sophisticated jewelry watches for both men and women. The present Piaget watch is a captivating fusion of elegance, refinement, and innovation, a testament to the brand’s remarkable skill. Crafted entirely in 18k yellow gold, this sparkling wristwatch is impeccably preserved. The 30 mm perfectly circular case, adorned with deep hallmarks, bears witness to its untouched nature, likely never having undergone polishing. The dial is a masterpiece, featuring an onyx chapter ring in perfect condition, complemented by a circular pavé setting of cut diamonds that adds a unique sparkle. The dauphine handset for the minute ensures extreme legibility and the diamond used for the hour hand is beautiful, it turns with all the inside circular onyx disc, making this watch a true piece of the “Mistery” collection. Piaget watches are renowned for their beauty and fine finishing, characterized by slender cases and sophisticated designs such as this 9025 B2. The rare pavè diamond-set dial surrounded by onyx stone reflects Piaget’s distinctive approach of incorporating various stones into their dials. This watch is powered by a hand-wound Cal.9P2 movement, introduced as the successor to the ultra-thin Cal.9P in the “80s. The result is a timeless piece that seamlessly blends Piaget’s legacy of craftsmanship with contemporary design and technical prowess.
