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.

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….
