The prestigious luxury replica watch company Piaget has once again surprised the world by launching three exceptional novelties to its exquisite Limelight collection. Graced with extravagant femininity and refinement, these wonderful models eloquently demonstrates Piaget’s supreme mastery of the watchmaking expertise cultivated by its Manufacture in La Co?te-aux-Fe?es, and the jewellery know-how exercised in its Manufacture in Geneva.

Piaget, over a century and a half, has evolved from a small La Co?te-aux-Fe?es workshop established in 1874 into an internatinal luxury brand. The remarkable two-fold expertise in the fields of watchmaking and jewellery leads to the its current status as one of the top ten luxury brands in the world. Now firmly established in two sites – La Co?te-aux-Fe?es (Neucha?tel Jura region) and Plan-les-Ouates (Geneva) – that have each made a speciality of one of these two areas of know-how, the Manufacture de Haute Horlogerie Piaget proudly presents three exclusive timepieces that bear vivid testimony to its associated skills. The new Haute Joaillerie watches comprise two original creations and a spectacularly gem-set self- winding chronograph.

The first symbolises a great tribute to the world of haute couture. Being unintentianally or deliberately left open, the watch is designed to reveal a delicate cleavage or a tantalizing glimpse of skin. Thanks to the remarkable closed setting work on the baguette-cut diamonds, the illusion created by the clever mix with more than one thousand brilliant-cut diamonds and trapeze-shaped black spinels is almost perfect. While the baguette-cut diamonds are set on the watch case, the true technical feat consisted in designing the latter in such a way as to position the stones not next to, but instead on the sapphire crystal itself, thus ensuring genuine continuity between the case and dial that creates a stunning optical effect. The masterpiece graced with sensual curves, as a result, took the Piaget master-jewellers 140 hours to set.

The second might be easily mistaken for a bright jewellery bracelet since few people can notice there is an extremely discreet timepiece concealed inside. This “secret” watch featuring alternating lines of baguette- and brilliant-cut diamonds, with each of the lines tipped with a pear-cut diamond, is entirely gem-set in Piaget’s Geneva workshops. Its clever mechanism enables it to reveal the mobile case at a press of the finger. Once the time has been read off, it disappears as if by magic beneath the 43 carats of diamonds shining on the bracelet.

The third and last timepiece highlights a brilliant combination of two worlds: Haute Horlogerie and Haute Joaillerie. Equipped with a self-winding Calibre 881P , developed, crafted by Piaget with horological traditions, it displays the hours, minutes, small seconds, dual time-zone as well as the flyback chronograph function. Refinement is taken to extremes with the gem-set oscillating weight. As beautiful on the outside as it is inside, its 18-carat white gold case is enhanced by 700 diamonds including 94 baguette-cut stones of 36 different sizes, all selected and calibrated by the Piaget Master Jewellers in order to ensure they adapt perfectly to the shape. Fitted with a mother-of-pearl dial, this model is also adorned with a gem-set case-back. While considered as a resolutely Haute Horlogerie model, this exceptional watch also emanates the stunning jewellery-making creativity.
