Piaget Brick' Diamond Dress Watch

For most of its existence, Piaget operated quietly behind the proverbial horology curtain, producing some of the most mechanical movements in Switzerland.

Bu t when the Piaget name was displayed on the dial, the brand embodied a distinguishable lavish style that became synonymous with a period of opulence, representative of the American dream in the 1960s and 70s, as well as those wore it — Andy Warhol, Roger Moore, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Elvis Presley, and many more.

Hailing from that exact era, this particular Piaget, a Reference 91541C5, features a 25mm 18K white gold case with a hypnotizing 'brick' motif, recessed crown, and a matching integrated white gold bracelet with a signed hook and lock clasp.

The pave dial is absolutely stunning. Every bit dial of real estate is treated to a factory diamond setting accompanied by a feuille handset and the manufacture's namesake directly above.

Powe red by a manually-wound JLC Calibre, this piece has everything going for it — a precious metal adorned with unique texturing and a dial that is worthy of a double-take ... even a triple-take.

Vintage Piaget are sizzling hot right now. So much so, that brands have taken note and reached back into their archives to bring back such examples. 

Be prepared to be amazed when you try this piece on!
