The movement is running at the time of cataloguing, and the battery has been recently replaced, however at some point in the future it will require a battery replacement. The Piaget signature to the dial does show some inconsistencies under a loupe. Case in overall good condition considering the age with some surface scuffs to the case back. It appears that the case has never been polished and the serial numbers to the case back are very easily legible. Bracelet in good condition with one small diamond lacking on the 7th 'bar' from the top; this is visible in the catalogue photograph. Circumference of bracelet is 190 mm, which could accomodate a relatively large wrist. Overall a substantial, heavy, and impressive watch.

鑽石重約10.92卡拉。伯爵確認於1974年生產。此品配備Beta-21機芯，於1970年4月的巴塞爾鐘錶展發表。C.E.H.既Centre Électronique Horloger，用近十年的時間研究及發展此品。早期的石英型號沿用龐大及較長方形的錶殼。此錶殼的形狀是用來存放體積較大的方形機芯。時至今日，這手錶的比例及尺寸再一次成為潮流。
