Catalogue Note

In 1969, Piaget launched the “Collection du XXIe siècle” (the 21st century collection) which showcased pendant and bracelet watches with ground-breaking design. Manufactured in 1975 in less than three examples, the present timepiece perfectly illustrates the iconic style of the Manufacture with an elaborated case and a hard stone dial.
