The development of their ultra-thin 9P and 12P calibers freed up the space for a new kind of watchmaking, where the case, dial, and bracelet were treated as a single canvas. This piece is a definitive example of that golden era. It combines high-jewelry techniques, like the pavé diamond work and rare Hawkeye stone dial, with a level of in-house gold work that defined the brand as a leader in its class.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Weight And Restrained Design\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eCrafted from solid 18K white gold, this watch makes its presence known through material and construction. The integrated bracelet, with its distinct oval link design, makes the 34mm case wear with a much larger footprint. It is a substantial piece of gold, weighing over 94 grams. Yet the execution is restrained. The design surrounding the pavé diamonds is intricate and cool, a detail that rewards closer inspection without shouting. The centerpiece is the Hawkeye stone dial, a material prized for its unique depth and texture, making each example one of a kind.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent Form With A Stated Flaw\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis watch is in excellent condition. The unpolished 18K white gold case and integrated bracelet are sharp and well-preserved. The Hawkeye dial, a fragile material by nature, has a visible crack running through two of its quarters from the 7:30 to 10:30 positions. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFor The Collector Of Craft\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis is a watch for someone who understands that true luxury is in the craft, not the logo. It comes from a period when Piaget's primary signature was the way it worked with gold and stone, a skill set that has become almost impossible to replicate today due to cost and lost expertise. It sits at the intersection of serious horology and fine jewelry, a confident statement piece for a buyer who values the art of how a watch is made.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12343D2\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Integrated Tuxedo\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1980s\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Automatic\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 34mm\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBezel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K White Gold\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracelet:\u003c\/strong\u003e Integrated Oval Design 18K White Gold\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBracelet Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.9in\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hawkeye with Diamond String\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K White Gold\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 94.1g\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1526\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Piaget","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55518906515747,"sku":"11526","price":24000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/6099\/1523\/files\/DSCF3680.jpg?v=1787772795","url":"https:\/\/dannysvintagewatches.com\/products\/piaget-12343d2-automatic-integrated-18k-white-gold-hawkeye-diamond-dial","provider":"Danny's Vintage Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
