Two-tone is back in fashion
It may soften the blow. Piaget used to state that their propositions will always be in precious metal.
This was after they stopped the stainless steel Upstream models.
Then, they launched the titanium Polo FortyFive range, that somehow we had to accept as 'precious metal',,,even though they were in Grade 5 titanium, it was a stretch.
Now that two-tone is back in fashion (see other haute horlogerie brands), the combination of grey and rose gold is actually quite pleasing.
I like the perpetual calendar Polo especialy the Year indicator being a reticule that slides into positon over the cycle year, in question. It also allows for the excellent ultra-thin perpetual calendar movement to be used by people that do not like cushion shaperd watches.

New models added to the Piaget Polo collection.
The two models immediately following are the first ever offering from Piaget of watches in a combination of rose gold and titanium. Ref. G0A36001. Titanium and rose gold Piaget Polo FortyFive Perpetual Calendar -- 45mm titanium case, 18K pink gold gadroon...
The Two metals Polo are beautiful.
They have to be seen "in the metal" to be appreciated. The complications are well integrated and the dials, even if they are busy, have balanced lay-outs. Fx...
Thanks for the live shots, Fr.Xavier!
I like the bi-colored Piaget Polos. They are sporty, but have an extra touch of elegance due to the rose gold gadroons. In the case of these two watches, I prefer the perpetual. It does have a busy dial, but the layout is quite nice IMO. Cheers, Daos
Me too!
The rose gold adds an extra touch of elegance to an otherwise sporty watch. Cheers, Daos

Very intesting to see bi-metal watches making a come back...
it will be interesting to see if it catches on as a trend. Patek stopped making their gold and steel Nautilus years ago. AP stopped making gold and steel Royal Oaks years ago (while they have worked with some exotic and odd combinations of materials they ...
I think...
...we'll see more and more of these bi-metal pieces from brands across varying segments of the industry. Combining two metals, like titanium and rose gold, offers the wearer greater versatility in matching the watch to clothing/occasions. What really intr...
Years ago I grew tired of bi metal designs...
I briefly owned a gold and steel Submariner. But it seemed every manager at car dealerships seemed to wear a gold and stainless Submariner. The Sub is a nice watch (I like it in all steel) but the bi metal design seemed tiresome after a while. Piaget's co...
The first one is my fav....
... have to locate Piaget boutique around here first! Nice, and thank you for letting us know. Ken
I like...
...the perpetual calendar also. It's got a well designed dial IMO. You are a lucky duck to have FOUR Piaget boutiques in Tokyo: click here . Cheers, Daos
Wow, 4?
Please ask your contact to tell you if and when there is some event in Tokyo boutique.... I would LOVE to be there.... Ken
Hmm interesting models
I have to see the Piaget Polo FortyFive Perpetual in person to make judgement. However, my first opinion is I see the FortyFive line as more a sporty line rather than one which houses complications such as perpetual calendar. Does anyone else feel this wa...
Very attractive
Big fan of the Forty Five series. The Flyback Chrono being my most favourite model.
My fave...
...is the open-dial FortyFive! The strap on these watches is also killer! Cheers, Daos
That would be an interesting option.
I actually like the rubber bracelet with metal gadroons. It's the most comfortable rubber strap I've ever worn. Cheers, Daos
