You lucky, lucky boy!

For the rest of the community, vpregulator is referring to a previous thread where he only had the external views of this uncommon limited edition celebrating Georges Piaget (founder) click here

Thanks vpregulator for the internal photos of the movement.

It is amazing and a little intriguing why Piaget would make such an exquisite decoration...really super-luxe and exceeding expectations....only to hide it somewhere that only trained watchmakers can see, at best, maybe every 5 years.

Is it a secret joke by real watchmakers for watchmakers?

Is it sufficient for Piaget and their true fans that only they 'know' such haute de gamme exists inside?

Is it some perverse Calvinistic morality?

I am reminded of the apocryphal story about Rolls Royce and their coyness to specify the actual power output of their engines; just stating that it was "adequate", when asked.

Now that we can see what is 'under the hood' in Piaget watches, albeit a special edition, we can understand why they have been truly the watchmakers' Watchmaker behind the scenes.

What do all of you think?

Regards,

MTF
