Why do we love vintage Piaget? Simply because they offer such incredible value for money compared to the likes of Cartier. Let us start with the movement. The revolutionary 9P caliber, a mere 2mm thick, set a new standard as the thinnest manual-wound movement ever crafted. Its impressive 20.5mm diameter allowed for larger, more striking cases, like the one you see here.
The "pinstripe" 18k white gold case of this Piaget Protocole is a masterpiece, measuring just 4mm in thickness. The intricate pinstripe texture, the recessed crown, and the hidden lugs combine to create a watch that is as elegant as it is innovative. The dial is a symphony in black, with the silver "Piaget" font subtly shimmering at different angles, and the absence of hour markers ensures the dauphine hands shine against the flat black background.
Complementing this thin design is a sleek black leather strap that allows the watch to sit snugly against the wrist, fulfilling the designer’s original vision of understated sophistication.
We are thrilled to offer this vintage Piaget Protocole in exceptional condition. The stunning white gold case with its pinstripe detailing, paired with the black dial and white gold dauphine hands, creates a timeless aesthetic. The black leather strap with the original 18k white gold Piaget buckle completes this elegant ensemble.
