I think Piaget is the best...
...at gem-set watches. Their settings when louped look very, very NICE. They put a lot of attention into their settings and the gem-set bridges on the Dancer are just amazing.
My favorite watch from your report was the jeweled Piaget Polo Tourbillon Relatif. I thought that watch had the best use of diamonds versus all the other pieces. Plus the tourbillon construction in the Piaget Polo case is very attractive -- sporty and elegant!
Thanks for the report! I love the photos of the location!
Cheers,

Arrghh! Your comments are same as Philippe Leopold-Metzger

Different strokes for different folks. :-) Maybe in the future there will be a more traditional dress watch utilizing the tourbillon relatif. :-) Daos
Thank you for a nice report
As usual, really nice report. Made the stupid mistake of visiting this exhibit with my girlfriend this Sunday... She seemed to appreciate the Piaget watches a lot, putting my bank account in jeopardy. All the best Nicolas
It is only a mistake if the girlfriend
gets a watch and does not become Mrs Artoxares. Or is it the other way around? hmmm She gets the watch and becomes Mrs Artoxares and wants more..... :-) Still, at least you can discuss your problems on this Piaget forum and not some faceless Facebook or T...
Great Report
Some exquisite pieces of jewelry and impressive watches too. definitely not for the modest and shy. I didn't even know you could fit so many diamonds on a watch, lol. Thanks for the report!
The pictures capture why Piaget insists
that they are a Watchmaker and Jeweller at the same time! Founded as a Swiss watchmaker and by acquisition of gem-setting businesses in the 1960s became a jeweller as well. This is opposite to their Richemont stable-mate - Cartier - that started as a Fren...
