For most of its existence, Piaget operated quietly behind the proverbial horology curtain, producing some of the most mechanical movements in Switzerland. 

But when the Piaget name was displayed on the dial, the brand embodied a distinguishable lavish style that became synonymous with a period of opulence, representative of the American dream in the 1960s and 70s, as well as those wore it –– Andy Warhol, Roger Moore, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Elvis Presley, and many more.

This particular Piaget, a Reference 18900, builds on that iconic era and features a 29mm x 40mm 18k white gold rectangular case with a set of gently flared lugs and a signed winding crown at 3 o’clock. The silver toned dial displays a beautiful blend of satin and guilloché finishings, as well as printed ‘Arabic’ indices, an off-center subsidiary constant-seconds, a power reserve indicator at 6 o’clock and a matching ‘dauphine’ handset. It comes fitted on a black Camille Fournet alligator strap with a signed 18k white gold pin buckle and houses Piaget’s self-winding Calibre 551 movement within.

Don’t let the ‘Black Tie’ namesake fool ya. This Piaget will look equally good when paired with a t-shirt and a pair of jeans. Trust us.
