This year, in Hong Kong, visitors have a chance to view two exceptional pieces of jewelry from the watch house of Piaget. This watchmaker of exclusive watches has been preserving and cultivating a spirit of luxury since its foundation in 1874. Though it has firstly been specialized in the production of watch movements, Piaget expanded the scope of its expertise in the 1960’s with the launch of dazzling jewelry timepieces.
The first exquisite watch that the audience in Hong Kongwill enjoy is the Gem-set Piaget Polo Flying Tourbillon. This masterpiece is characterized by the superb gem-cutting and setting on the 18-karat white gold case and dial. The model with the referent number G0A29065 features a crown adorned with as many as 446 brilliant-cut diamonds with the total weight of approximately 7.6 karats, and 151 baguette-cut diamonds totaling to 16 karats. Its 18-carat white gold folding clasp also features 16 brilliant-cut diamonds weighting 0.3 karats, as well as 14 baguette-cut diamonds totaling to 1.5 karats. The total weight of diamonds is about 25.4 karats.
