It provides a rich, textured frame for the clean white lacquer dial. Applied gold Roman numerals and batons mark the hours, adding a classical element to the design. The watch is fitted to a vibrant red Hirsch leather strap, which is secured by the original, signed 18K gold Piaget buckle.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePiaget's Jeweler-Watchmaker Period\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis reference 8711 from the 1990s is a direct descendant of the design philosophy Piaget established in the 1960s. After pioneering ultra-thin mechanical movements that effectively disappeared inside the case, the house shifted its focus from pure watchmaking to the art of the watch-as-jewelry. The adoption of precise, compact quartz calibers was a natural extension of this idea. It freed designers to concentrate entirely on the form, material, and finishing of the case and dial, producing pieces where the gold work itself was the main event.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreserved Gold And Lacquer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis piece is in Excellent Condition overall, with sharp bezel definition and clean case surfaces that retain their original lines. The 18K yellow gold case is well-preserved. The white lacquer dial is clean, and the applied gold numerals are crisp. The watch is fitted to a red Hirsch leather strap that complements the gold case, and it retains its signed Piaget buckle. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTwenty Grams On The Wrist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eAt 24mm and just over 20 grams total weight, this watch wears like a piece of fine jewelry rather than a timepiece. The leather strap keeps the gold case perfectly centered, and the beaded bezel catches light without adding bulk. The quartz movement means no daily winding. This is a watch from a period when Piaget's reputation was built on goldsmithing and artistry, where the material and the finishing were the point.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8711\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1990s\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMovement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Quartz\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24mm (Excluding Crown)\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBezel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K Yellow Gold Beaded\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrap:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red Hirsch Leather\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDial:\u003c\/strong\u003e White Lacquer, Gold Roman Numerals\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMetal:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18K Yellow Gold\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20.8g\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1930\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFit And Customization\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThis watch should feel like it was made for your wrist from the moment you put it on.
