Manchette 9212

Piaget Manchette 9212 from the 1980s. The 1970s marked an era of remarkable creativity and bold experimentation in watch design, and few maisons embodied this spirit more vividly than Piaget. Drawing upon its dual expertise as both jeweller and watchmaker, Piaget produced some of the most daring and exquisite bracelet watches of the period—creations that blurred the line between horology and high jewellery. Crafted in gold and entirely hand-finished with a dramatic bark-like texture. The lapis dial further enhances the natural inspiration of the piece

Piaget epitomizes daring creativity – a quality that has continued to permeate through the Maison since its beginnings in 1874. From his first workshop in La Côte-aux- Fées, Georges-Edouard Piaget devoted himself to crafting high-precision movements in a feat that formed the very foundations of our pioneering name.In the late 1950s, Piaget unveiled the ultra-thin movements that would later become the Maison’s trademark and the cornerstone of the Altiplano collection.

As a true innovator of the watch and jewellery world, Piaget strongly believed in creativity and artistic values. It is within the walls of our « Ateliers de l’Extraordinaire » where master artisans continue to harness rare skills that have been preserved and perfected from generation to generation, transforming gold, stones and precious gems into dazzling works of art.

Through its pursuit of masterful craftsmanship, the Maison has created emblems of daring excellence channeled into its collections including Altiplano, Piaget Polo, Limelight Gala, Possession, Piaget Sunlight, Piaget Rose and Extremely Piaget.
