Piaget 9741 – Falcon Eye

A true gem from the golden age of Piaget’s design innovation, this Piaget Ref. 9741 from the 1980s is a stunning and rare example of the brand’s commitment to combining fine watchmaking with natural materials and jewelry-level craftsmanship. Crafted in solid 18K white gold, the watch features a refined 30mm tonneau-shaped case and is fitted with an elegant integrated bracelet. With a total weight of 95.9 grams, the watch offers a substantial and luxurious wrist presence.

What truly sets this piece apart is its rare black and blue Falcon’s Eye stone dial—a unique variant of the more commonly seen Tiger’s Eye. While Tiger’s Eye features golden-brown chatoyant bands, Falcon’s Eye (also known as Hawk’s Eye) is a naturally occurring variety of quartz with deep midnight blues, blacks, and silvery grays, often with a shimmering, almost metallic appearance. It forms in the early stages of Tiger’s Eye, before oxidation turns the iron-rich fibers into the golden hues we more frequently see. Because it is less commonly mined and used, Falcon’s Eye is significantly rarer, especially as a factory-set dial in a luxury watch, making this timepiece extraordinarily collectible.

The dial is complemented by sharp Dauphine hands, offering a perfect balance between elegance and legibility without distracting from the natural texture and depth of the stone. Every dial is naturally unique, and this particular example exhibits a rich and dynamic interplay of blue and black tones that shift subtly in the light.

Inside, the watch is powered by Piaget’s ultra-thin manual wind movement, a hallmark of the brand’s mechanical excellence during this era. All components—the case, dial, and movement—are 100% original and remain in excellent vintage condition.

Rarely seen on the market—particularly in 18K white gold with a Falcon’s Eye dial—this reference exemplifies Piaget’s mastery at the intersection of horology and high design. A true statement piece for collectors who value rarity, artistry, and the enduring elegance of natural materials.
