  • PLAY BY YOUR OWN RULES: THE PIAGET POLO GOES SKELETON

    ALL-NEW LOOK FOR PIAGET’S FAMOUS LUXURY SPORTS WATCH

    There are few finer expressions of horological art than that of ‘skeletonisation’ - the intricate reduction of dials and movements to their bare minimum in order to reveal the true, beating heart of a watch in all its mechanical glory.

    Creating a skeleton watch requires vision, confidence, time and the considerable skill and ex- perience of numerous specialists in order to combine exceptional aesthetics with dependable functionality - and it is a genre for which Piaget has been renowned for half a century.

    LOVED BY THE STARS

    The first Piaget skeleton watches were made during the 1970s and, as with many of the Maison’s creations, they immedia- tely attracted a high-profile following.

    One of the most noted early adopters was the jazz trumpet legend Miles Davis who always turned-up to appearances with a briefcase containing a selection of time- pieces, including Piaget watches, choosing his ‘watch of the night’ just before he took to the stage.

    And fittingly for a man known for the intri- cacy and innovation of his playing, a gold Piaget skeleton could often be seen on his wrist during major performances.

    ULTRA-THIN SKELETONS...

    And since Piaget has long been renowned for creating mechanisms of exceptional slimness, it set-out to marry its two signa- ture disciplines by developing calibres that were both exquisitely thin and meticulously skeletonised, setting multiple records along the way by unveiling the thinnest skeleton movements the world had ever seen, variously incorporating tourbillons, moonphase displays, exquisite enamelling, diamond settings and automatic winding.

    ANOTHER SKELETON FIRST

    And now Piaget is delighted to announce its latest adventure in skeleton watch making: A fully skeletonised version of its celebrated Piaget Polo, the groundbreaking luxury sports watch created by Piaget in 1979.

    In order to successfully develop the Piaget Polo Skeleton, Piaget’s designers and en- gineers had to consider the key aspects of the Piaget Polo that have made it instant- ly recognizable - notably its curved case surmounted by a round bezel, its cushion- shaped dial opening and its slim profile.

    But perfecting the Polo Skeleton required a case to be created that was a remarkable 30 percent thinner than existing versions, and an evolution of the Piaget 1200S self-winding skeleton movement powered by an off-centre micro rotor engraved with Piaget coat of arms.

    The challenge was to maintain the bold and unmistakable look that gives the Piaget Polo its strong personality while simultaneously achieving an unprecedented combination of elegance, usability and comfort through the thinnest case ever seen on the model.

    AND THE RESULT?

     Nothing short of a wearable work of art - a 42mm steel-cased sports watch measuring just 6.5mm thick and powered by Piaget’s 1200S1 self-win- ding, manufacture movement - entirely de- veloped and produced in-house - which is a wafer-like 2.4mm thin.

    Despite the intricate appearance of the pa- red-down components, the Polo Skeleton remains just as robust, reliable and practical as the other models, featuring 44 hours of power reserve and water resistance down to three atmospheres.

    Additionally, the polished and satin-finished ‘H’ design integrated bracelet that has be- come synonymous with the Piaget Polo has also been revised in order to provide an in- terchangeable function.

    This enables it to be swapped effortlessly for the additional interchangeable leather strap supplied with each watch, adding to its versatility and lending an extra dimen- sion to the Piaget Polo Skeleton’s already distinctive character.

    PIAGET POLO SKELETON - ONE WATCH, TWO STYLES.

    The new Piaget Polo Skeleton is available in two highly individual designs - the first with a movement in Piaget Blue PVD, the

    second in a slate gray finish. In each version, the famous Piaget Polo case has been re- duced to a mere 6.5mm thick (almost 3mm slimmer) while the intricately skeletonised movement and even the hands themselves have been pared-down for the ultimate in transparency.

    A clear sapphire crystal case back, meanwhile, allows the meticulously finished and highly detailed movement to be seen and appre- ciated from both sides of the watch.
