Piaget was founded by Georges Piaget in 1874. Today the brand is one of leaders when it comes to designing and manufacturing jewelry timepieces, one-of-a-kind creations and special models, all with incredibly bold designs.

The present watch is highly unusual and created as a unique piece. The watch is set with close to 70 carats of precious gems and is telling time in two locations.  The quality of the materials used as to the fineness of execution are the best words to describe the beauty of this incredible bracelet watch. This watch was made to order for a very special client with a staggering retail price of $3m US dollars. Piaget’s philosophy is to “always do better than necessary” and the word “impossible” does not exist for this master watchmaker or their artists who design, do metalwork and work with precious stones at the firm.

Piaget’s special models and one-of-a-kind creations can be defined as a dream becoming reality. This precious and sparking watch is unique it terms of its design, execution and is sensational in every way.
