Piaget

I know nothing about Piaget, and definitely not those 40 or 50 year old pieces Is this genuine ? movement looks poor but I dodn't know how a 50 year old Piaget should look like And what is it worth ? I know we don't like to discuss prices here but I have ...  

As the AS1130 was used by Piaget. Fx

FrX, The Piaget boffins are searching their archives so we don't know the answer yet. In my research, I found some history of JLC (Jaeger leCoultre) that surprised me. JLC, a so-called "true manufacture", used A.Schild movements for a short time in 1970s.... 

Such as the Diving watches from the same era, and used outsourced movements for their chronographs, too. But the vast majority of their watches ( My guess estimate is that we are around 90 % ) used in house movements. There are not a lot brands which can ... 

I completely agree than JLC has nothing to prove as what we call a "true manufacture". Maybe we should tighten up this so-called definition of manufacture? We should have true manufactures and ultra-true manufactures :-) Regards, MTF

Dear Bruno . My watch is genuine Piaget 20P cal .18kt solid gold. Thanks for your

Piaget 20P caliber is an automatic winding movement. Regards, MTF ...  

NO YOU ARE WRONG!!! well half wrong. if you didn't notice the movement on the left is the back side of the 20P. the movement on the right is the backside of the 25P. the 25p is just a 20p with a .8mm rotor on the back, easiest way to prove my point is you...  

et al, I have a hypothesis but am waiting for Piaget to confirm certain things. Although Piaget has been making movements for other brands since 1874, they only started using their name on the dial as a Piaget branded complete watch At the start of Piage...
