Details

An Emblem Of 1980s Luxury

The Concord Polo represents a specific and confident chapter in watch design. Emerging in an era defined by integrated bracelet sports watches, Concord leaned into the trend with its own distinct vision. Unlike its more industrial Swiss counterparts, the Polo was an unapologetic expression of American luxury, heavily marketed and seen as a status symbol throughout the 1980s. This 1982 example, rendered entirely in 14K yellow gold, captures the spirit of the time perfectly.

A Seamless Flow Of Solid Gold

What sets this watch apart is its fully integrated design. The textural pattern of the bezel flows uninterrupted down the bracelet, creating a seamless, bracelet-like feel on the wrist. It is a piece that blurs the line between a watch and jewelry. The 34mm case is crafted from solid 14K gold, as is the caseback and bracelet, giving it a satisfying weight and presence that speaks to its quality. Gold dauphine hands complete the clean, time-only layout.

Honest Condition From Its Era

The case and bracelet of this watch are in great cosmetic condition and have been slightly polished. All parts, including the dial and movement, are original. There is a personal engraving on the caseback, a common feature on watches from this period. The integrated bracelet is designed with screw-in links for easy sizing. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.

Confident And Distinctive

This watch is for the person who appreciates the bold design language of the early eighties and wants something different from the usual choices. The solid gold construction and integrated form make a strong statement, while the 34mm size keeps it wearable and surprisingly versatile. It is a piece that captures a unique moment in luxury, offering a distinctive style that still feels relevant today.

History

When Piaget unveiled the Polo in 1979, the watch world was still processing what Audemars Piguet had done in 1972 with the Royal Oak. Piaget's answer was the Polo: an integrated bracelet watch with an ultrathin movement housed in a round case, built entirely in 18-karat gold, and priced accordingly.

The Polo was named for the sport that Yves G. Piaget — grandson of the founder — played and sponsored, and the watch carried his sensibility: sporty enough to wear at the polo grounds, refined enough to wear at the dinner that followed. The integrated bracelet, with its alternating polished and brushed surfaces, is one of the most tactile in the industry.

Reference 7661 (the "Jumbo" Polo in 34mm) and the smaller 861 C 701 are the classic references. Available in yellow and white gold, with onyx, diamond, and solid-colored dials, the Polo represents Piaget at full confidence — a manufactory that had spent decades making the thinnest movements in the world, finally putting them in a watch that matched their ambition.
