Happened to see the Andy Warhol edition from Piaget today...

In YG, the stepped case is quite substantial in size and presence....measuring 45 x 43mm !


But the raison d'etre is the dial....


4 piece dial with Onyx as base and with 3 stones, Yellow Serpentine, Pink Opal and Green Chrysoprase representing the works of Andy Warhol !




On the wrist, you know you've a timepiece and it is quirky yet elegant....



The above edition is limited to 50 pieces.

Personally I like the dial and stepped case, I wish, in future Paiget considers bringing down the case to a moderate size that might appeal to much more wearers...

share your thoughts and have a great weekend !

Best,
mahesh.,


About the Piaget Andy Warhol Collection Ref. 9742 D2

The Piaget Andy Warhol collection represents a fascinating intersection between haute horlogerie and contemporary art, emerging from Piaget's longstanding relationship with the art world. This collaboration transformed Warhol's iconic pop art aesthetic into wearable timepieces, featuring actual reproductions of his artwork as dial elements. The collection exemplifies Piaget's willingness to push boundaries beyond traditional watchmaking conventions, positioning the brand as a patron of artistic expression while maintaining its reputation for luxury craftsmanship.

This particular timepiece showcases Warhol's distinctive color-blocking technique and geometric compositions directly on the dial, with what appears to be his signature visible on one of the artistic elements. The cushion-shaped case with ribbed detailing reflects Piaget's design language from this era, while the integration of actual artwork creates a three-dimensional gallery effect within the confines of a watch case. The technical achievement lies not in mechanical complexity but in the preservation and miniaturization of Warhol's artistic vision into a functional timepiece.

The Andy Warhol Piaget watches occupy a unique position in the collecting landscape, appealing to both horological enthusiasts and art collectors. These pieces represent a specific moment in luxury watch history when brands began exploring artistic collaborations more seriously. The collectibility stems from the dual appeal of Piaget's craftsmanship and Warhol's enduring cultural significance, though values depend heavily on the specific artwork featured and the condition of the artistic elements.

This is a beautiful watch

I’ve never seen one but they do seem large. We had a member with a few of them and it was always a joy seeing them.

I do agree, the case size could have been a tad smaller.
