Description

Entirely in line with the creative daring characterising the Maison, the Protocole XXL model (G0A40570) is decorated from dial to bezel using the micro-mosaic technique, once again illustrating the creative sparkle cherished by Piaget. To achieve this effect, Italian micro-mosaic specialist artist, Cesare Bella, creates a masterpiece of precision by juxtaposing nearly five thousand miniscule glass tesserae, which combine to reveal a remarkable view of the Santa Maria Della Salute basilica overlooking the mouth of the Grand Canal.
