1973: Enter the Limelight Gala.
A feminine play on shape, whose elegant lugs curve around the watch face in an exquisite signature.
Making feature appearances at soirées in the legendary hotels of Gstaad and Monaco, glamorous parties gave the timekeeping icon its name: Gala.
Today, Limelight Gala has all the couture extravagance and charisma of its 1970s predecessors – a symbol of elegant femininity.
1972: Out of 70s pop culture, another shape is formed.
Andy Warhol, the Pope of Pop Art, is captivated by the distinctive form of the model 15102 – a cushion shape that reflects his fascination with TV and pop culture.
Added to his collection of Piaget watches in 1973, production of the unique timekeeper ends just five years after its initial release.
Until now.
Once worn by Andy Warhol, the watch now bears his name. And an icon is reborn.
1969: Man walks on the moon, and Piaget launches the 21st Century Collection.
A play of gold, color, and shape: where circles, triangles, and squares transform into forms of character and flair.
The star of the show? The trapeze. The shape creates a sensation within the collection. Not quite circle, not quite square – an avant-garde outline that defies tradition.
A fresh take on an iconic form, captured in a gold bracelet of finely worked trapezoid links that elegantly drape the wrist.
A shape to defy convention with elegance.
