History

Georges Edouard Piaget founded his manufactory in La Côte-aux-Fées in 1874, and for decades the company's reputation rested on its ability to produce movements of exceptional thinness — calibers that other high houses bought and put in their own watches. When Piaget began producing watches under its own name in the late 1950s and 1960s, it brought that ultra-thin expertise directly to the dial.

The Altiplano is Piaget's flagship ultra-thin collection, a direct expression of that founding expertise. The Grenade is a bold gem-set cocktail watch — all pave diamonds, colored stones, and sculptural bezels — occupying the space between watch and jewel without apology. The Limelight Gala, produced from the 2010s onward, is the modern heir to that cocktail tradition: an 18-karat white gold round case set with diamonds, a slim quartz movement, and a leather strap. All three collections reflect the same dual mastery that Piaget has always commanded: the thinnest movements in the world, in cases worth wearing.
