Notes:
Altiplano Skeleton watch, 38 mm. 18K rose-gold case. Sapphire case back. Manufacture Piaget 1200S anthracite grey automatic caliber, the thinnest mechanical skeleton movement in the world (2.4 mm). Rose-colored platinum oscillating weight. 22.6 grams of metal weight.
Piaget goes even further beyond the boundaries of refinement and the ultra-thin with a double world record. Two years after launching the double record-holding 1200P caliber, both extremely thin (2.35 mm) and reliable, Piaget presents the thinnest automatic skeleton watch in the world (5.34 mm), housing the thinnest automatic skeleton movement in the world (2.40 mm). The result of unique expertise that Piaget has perpetuated since 1874, this luxury watch is enshrined in its time, as illustrated through its resolutely modern lines that combine the elegance of rose gold with unpretentious anthracite gray. Its skeleton movement has been delicately hollowed by highly-skilled craftsmen. An especially complex operation accomplished with extreme attention to detail without sacrificing reliability or component rigidity. Paying homage to the watchmaker's traditional art, which they excel in perpetuating, the movement integrates a harmoniously symmetric balance bridge and long curves that cross the mainplate and add overall rigidity. The quest for style is twofold with extraordinary decorative work, interplay of sun-brushed and sand-brushed matte surfaces that contrast with the shimmering brilliance of the edges. This work of art embraces finishes such as hand-worked beveling and drawing that bear the hallmark of highly-accomplished craftsmen. The attention to detail also applies to the screws (traditionally blued), the hands and the rose-gold-hued, platinum microrotor. A state-of-the-art luxury watch that perpetuates the traditions of the craft where, the rose gold and anthracite tones of the case blend harmoniously with the gray hues of the alligator-skin strap. A pure, sublime interaction between engineering and external finishing details.

In 1874, Georges Edouard Piaget set up his first workshop on the family farm, situated in the small village of La Côte-aux-Fées in the Swiss Jura mountains. Situated in the Neuchâtel region, the company was dedicated to crafting pocket watches and high-precision clock movements. In 1911, Timothée Piaget, the son of Georges Piaget, took over the family firm. The company's policy has been to be dedicated to the production of wristwatches ever since.
