Piaget 9772 D2 - 18K White Gold Malachite Pave Dial
The Height Of Piaget's Golden Era
This Piaget 9772 D2 is a pure expression of the brand's peak creativity in the 1970s. It was an era when Piaget mastered the art of combining watchmaking with high jewelry, using bold stone dials and precious metals to create timepieces that were also significant pieces of art. The combination of a vibrant malachite dial, factory-set pavé diamonds, and a solid white gold case and bracelet represents the best of this design period. This is not just a watch; it's a statement of luxury from a time when design was audacious and unapologetic. What collectors love about this piece is the overall unity between case and bracelet, leading the watch to feel like a uniform expression versus a bracelet and case.
A Study In Texture And Color
This example stands out for its specific and striking combination of materials. The dial features a central square of brilliant pavé diamonds, perfectly framed by an outer section of deep, banded green malachite, all set in 18K white gold. The dial is the clear centerpiece, but the craftsmanship extends to the fully integrated bracelet. Its woven texture is a signature Piaget skill, creating a seamless flow of precious metal around the wrist that is both a bracelet and a watch case in one. The 30mm cushion case wears with substantial presence due to the integrated design.
Flawless Dial And Immaculate Bracelet
The watch is in excellent condition. The critical element, the malachite dial, is fantastic and shows no cracks or fractures, which is the primary concern for any vintage stone dial. The factory-set diamonds are secure. The integrated 18K white gold woven bracelet is in overall immaculate, original condition, leading the overall weight to reach over 100 grams. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
A True Jewelry Timepiece
This is a watch for someone who appreciates the intersection of horology and high jewelry. It wears less like a traditional timepiece and more like a significant gold bracelet that happens to tell time. It works as a confident statement for special occasions or for the collector who understands that Piaget's work from this era is becoming increasingly sought-after for its unique and daring aesthetic.

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….
Can't recommend Danny's vintage watches enough!!! My first Omega ever and im in love have been wearing every day since I purchased it. Danny's shop is a must visit if you are in NYC looking for a watch!!!
