The Golden Boy.
In the golden age of the 1970s, when horology was defined by simplicity and refinement, men’s wrist watches embraced a distinct style—where thin, understated timepieces were the ultimate expression of sophistication. Piaget, always at the forefront of artistry, captured this with a watch model that epitomized the era’s design philosophy: thin, elegant, and masterfully crafted.
This midsize Piaget is a quintessential reflection of that time, when men wore their watches not as mere accessories, but as subtle statements of taste. Crafted entirely from solid 18K yellow gold weighing 72.5 grams, its handwoven bracelet mimics intricate fish scales while the ultra-slim case merges into it for an integrated look. With a profile so thin, it houses the revered 9P1 manual movement, a technical marvel of its time.
The minimalist black dial, free from excess detail, offers a striking contrast to the warmth of the gold. The dauphine hands - both angular and sharp - add a strong, masculine look that pop against the simple black dial. Overall the simplicity of this watch allows the craftsmanship to speak volumes.
This watch is in pristine condition.
The bracelet is free from kinks with no stretch or warping, a common sign of wear from many vintage integrated bracelets.
The dial still retains its dark, black colour with the Piaget gold lettering still sharp.
The serial numbers and hallmarks are deep and still visible on the caseback and inside the bracelet clasp.
The overall case still retains its original brushing with only light hairline scratches throughout.
