Piaget

Ref. G0A31164 'Venice' When I first saw 'enamel' Piaget Polo Tourbillon Relatif watches, I was rather surprised that they called it enamelling. I expected enamel work for watches to be pure white dial faces or miniature paintings on case backs. I could no...  

Thanks MTF, looking forward to Part II -MW

PIAGET has some connection with the Piazza San Marco clocktower in Venice. The city name is more recognisable than the name - 'Piazza San Marco Clocktower'; I used some poetic licence. The wonderful clocktower in Piazza San Marco, commissioned by the Doge... 

Thanks, MTF! I love your article. It's been a long time since I read many of the terms you kindly explain in your post. I agree with your sentiment that enameling is more art than science. It takes knowledge, experience, and that sixth-sense almost to kno... 

to explain without some background. An enamelled piece is many times pricier than a 'simple' Tourbillon Relatif, which, in itself is already a princely sum. The search for perfection in an imperfect world gives up many failures and the spoilage rate is hi... 

my favorite being NY but all are gorgeous! Most innovative and charming case sides I ever saw Thank you for sharing Best Damian

'Pekin' being of chinese genotype but the New York seems quietly elegant in a dark monotone. Regards, MTF

No message body

I hope the former. Are you stunned because you did not expect Piaget to be doing this? Or did you see them as purveyours of diamond set watches? Regards, MTF

Hi MTF, Congratulations on a most comprehensive and enjoyable read. An excellent report on email and obviously very thoroughly researched. I was particularly pleased to see you make public the little known comparison between email and E-mail. Your article... 

Jack, Thanks for an insider's re-collections. My Koala avatar does not denote my geographical origins but an empathy for the littel marsupial (not so little in Tasmania). If I could be assured of a safe life , free from vicious dogs and forest fires, I ma... 

Great report on all the work that went into those watches. I love the Paris dial watch, very cool...although the blue from the Venice piece is so rich and vibrant! I'm almost embarassed to say this if the first time I noticed that there was a Piaget forum... 

dino dino dino, You only found our Piaget forum now? Do I have to commit seppuku (hari-kiri) now? Seriously, we are pleased to help tell the Piaget story and as Piaget CEO said, "Together, we will write the next pages of our history book". Welcome home! M... 

Maybe I will have to wear a "Scarelet Letter P" on my clothing as atonement for my not noticing this forum was here. I was astonished when I checked some back pages to see how long the Piaget forum has been going! I don't know how I missed seeing it previ... 

You are forgiven, my son! "Close every door to me, Hide all the world from me Bar all the windows And shut out the light Do what you want with me, Hate me and laugh at me Darken my daytime And torture my night....." This message has been edited by MTF on ...
