Piaget 9131 - 18K White Gold Diamond Pave Dial with Sapphire Indices

Trade In
Details
The Apex Of 1980s High Jewelry

During the 1980s, Piaget was not just making watches, it was creating integrated objects of art that blurred the line between horology and high jewelry. This reference 9131 is a definitive example of that philosophy. The entire piece is conceived as a single, flowing sculpture in 18K white gold, from the case to the fully integrated bracelet. This was an era of unapologetic luxury, and Piaget led the charge by pairing its ultra-thin mechanical movements with precious metals and exotic stone dials, a combination that remains the brand's signature.


A Dial Of Depth And Fire

This example stands apart due to its complex and masterfully executed dial. A brilliant field of pave-set diamonds is the backdrop for the beautiful sapphire hour markers, adding a flash of deep blue color. The internal notes mention a "water-adjacent setting work" in the carved white gold, a detail that gives the watch a unique texture and life under magnification. At nearly 150 grams, the piece has a substantial, commanding presence on the wrist that is pure 1980s confidence.


An Excellent State Of Preservation

This piece is in excellent physical condition. The 18K white gold case and integrated bracelet show a remarkable level of preservation, retaining the crisp details of the original carved design. The complex dial, with its diamonds and sapphires, is exceptionally well-preserved. The integrated bracelet is fluid and shows no signs of excessive wear. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.


Wearable Sculpture

This is a watch for someone who understands that true luxury is in the execution of materials. It is less a simple timepiece and more a piece of wearable sculpture. The manual-wind movement creates a necessary daily ritual, a moment of connection with a machine built to last generations. It is a statement piece from an era when Piaget was the undisputed master of its craft, and it feels just as powerful and relevant today.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
