The Colours Of Love: Piaget Celebrates Christmas With Bright Stones, Sculpted Gold and Brilliant Diamonds






Intense passion, heartfelt affection or simple tenderness. Through the magic of precious gold, colourful hard stones and dazzling diamonds, Piaget evokes the many aspects of love. 

Elegant watches and radiant jewellery creations make meaningful and unforgettable gifts on Christmas. For in the world of Piaget, a declaration of love is expressed through the beauty of intricate goldsmithing, the brilliance of gem-setting and the technical virtuosity of the finest watchmaking.

For the woman who appreciates timeless elegance with a touch of radiance, the Piaget oval-shaped watch in white or pink gold evokes the glamour and refinement of a uniquely Piaget look born in the 1960s. 

Modeled after an iconic watch was once worn by Jackie Kennedy and later purchased by Piaget for its private collection, this creation perpetuates the Maison’s legacy of fusing watchmaking and jewellery. Ultra-thin calibers are paired with hard stones and intricately sculpted bracelets are made in the Piaget tradition of fine goldsmithing. 

Like a woven fabric that seductively wraps around the wrist, the characteristic “palace” decoration on the gold gives the bracelet its silk-like texture and iridescent effect. Bold, brilliant and audacious combinations of
colours and textures define this distinctively Piaget watch. 

A vivid natural Turquoise hard stone dial (and a bezel set with brilliant diamonds) is paired with a white “palace” gold bracelet (G0A42216), while a second model features the warmth of a rich orange-red Cornaline stone dial and the glow of a pink gold “palace” bracelet (G0A42217).


In the same way that the shared love between two people is completely unique, so is the dial of each of the Hard Stone Altiplano watches, because no two pieces of stone are ever identical. 

The creative use of coloured stones on its dials has become a signature statement of style only made possible by the ultra-thin 430P movement achieved by Piaget watchmakers and the dexterity and skill of artisans who shape the stone to bring out its distinguishing natural qualities, whether its transparency, inclusions or textures. 


In an explosion of colours, the unparalleled intensity of Turquoise is enhanced with a profusion of brilliant-cut diamonds set on the white gold bezel framing the bright blue stone dial (G0A42173). 


The purity of the precious opal has been captured on the dial of a rose gold Altiplano watch, as the scintillating diamonds and the light from the iridescent stone play off each other creating a dazzling effect (G0A42174).

Traditional symbol of a declaration of love, the elegant rose is also the floral emblem of the Maison. The Yves Piaget rose earned its name in recognition of the Maison’s longstanding passion for this exceptional flower, and has since become an endless source of inspiration, creatively reimagined in gold and diamonds. Set on a delicate bracelet, the latest variety to unfurl its petals is a dentelle rose in rose gold. 

With playful radiance, this intricate lacework rose allows the natural beauty of a woman’s skin to shine through its petals. A tribute to the mystery of love, a single iridescent white Akoya pearl is placed alongside the rose as a poetic reference to Venus the goddess of love (G36U4400). 

In a second variation of this captivating bracelet, a shimmering pink sapphire evokes all the intensity of true love (G36U4600).
 
A tribute to Piaget’s heritage and daring spirit, the Black Tie Inspiration Vintage makes a special gift for a man who is nothing but extraordinary. Fallen from the sky, the meteorite is a stone of great rarity masterfully cut and expertly set onto the dial to accentuate the contemporary look of the sculpted white gold case. 

As exceptional as the texture and aesthetics of this star-like stone, the watch’s unique cushion shape sets it apart - neither round, square nor rectangular but all of them at once. 


To give the case its rounded angles, Piaget has applied the most refined goldsmithing featuring superimposed matt and shiny surfaces to create the different depth effects. Inside, the ultra-thin automatic Piaget 534P movement never misses a beat (G0A42237).





A virtuoso marriage of shapes and textures, precious stones and gold, each of these creations captures all the emotion of love, a gift to make the heart beat a little faster on Valentine’s Day.
