As a brand well known in all parts of the fashion world, Piaget often takes its inspiration for collections from star-studded destinations. Recently, a new collection took its character from Paris and New York.

The brilliant structure of the Eiffel Tower is reflected in one of Piaget’s magnificent collection of diamond watch and jewelry creations. The playful and enchanting Grande Roue or Ferris wheel became the inspiration for some variations of secret watches and jewelry that show tiny diamond baskets suspended from a rotating deck, resembling the Ferris wheel’s gondolas.

Being one of the fashion capitals of the world, it is to be expected that the collection would show extreme couture quality.
The Piaget Polo Tourbillon Relatif reveals an 18-carat white gold case while the dial employs grand feu enameling based on
the champleve technique. It also shows its Paris inspiration by incorporating an aerial view of the 12 avenues that radiate from
the Arc de Triomphe.

Inspired by a sensual couture style of Paris, Piaget has created a one-of-a-kind cuff watch, an iconic item in the history of the brand. The diamond-paved Piaget Paris Architecture theme watch spotlights an 18-carat white gold case, bracelet and integrated
clasp. The grandiose timepiece is set with 620 brilliant-cut diamonds and 8 pearcut diamonds. The 18-carat white gold dial
is set with 64 brilliant-cut diamonds.

Also intensely inspired by New York, Piaget designers have used images of the iconic Chrysler Building and the Statue of Liberty in New York to create an imposing jewelry set of a necklace and earrings. As a motif for a pendant, earrings or a
watch dial, the graphic design of the seven rays of the Statue of Liberty’s diadem symbolizes the seven oceans. The 18-carat
white gold case of the Piaget New York Architecture theme is completely paved with 273 brilliant-cut diamonds. The
black dial of the timepiece is set with 99 brilliant-cut diamonds.

The New York-inspired creations present the black and white colors of a classic New York evening with the sight of city lights
and its people. Black satin and a diamond bow help reveal the couture side and hide a Secret watch with a diamond-pave cover
that opens discreetly to show the time.
