Description

Timeless purity and classicism converge in this ultra-thin white-gold timepiece, which pays homage to the elegance and refinement of Piaget. In a resolutely minimalistic spirit based on the historical 9P and 12P movements, Piaget continues to push the limits of micromechanics and ultra-thin movements: thanks to its micro-rotor, the whole calibre is just 3mm thick, while the case has an overall thickness of 6.36 mm.

The silver-coloured dial, arranged on two levels and with alternating indexes, is also highly refined with its small-seconds display at 4 o'clock and the date at 9 o'clock, which display perfect aesthetic balance and Piaget’s signature off-centred indicators. With a 40mm white gold case, it is truly a modern classic that is both sober and elegant.
