Piaget Polo 7131 C 701 - 18K Yellow Gold Gadroon Dial

Details
The Original Gold Sports Watch
When the luxury sports watch category was taking shape in steel, Piaget took a different path. The Polo, introduced in 1979, was their unapologetic answer, executed from day one in solid precious metal. It was designed for a world of aristocratic leisure, named after the sport of kings, and it perfectly captured the confident extravagance of the 1980s. The defining feature is the seamless integration between the case and bracelet, creating a continuous flow of gold that was a feat of high-level engineering and design.
An Exercise In Precious Metal
This example is a pure expression of the original Polo concept. The entire watch, from the case and bezel to the bracelet and even the dial itself, is crafted from solid 18k yellow gold. The dial features the signature Gadroon finish, a pattern of parallel ribs that adds texture and depth, catching the light in a way a flat surface cannot. It is a piece that reads as both a watch and a piece of fine jewelry, a testament to Piaget's dual mastery of watchmaking and high design.
Well Preserved For Its Era
The overall condition of this watch is good. The 18k yellow gold case and integrated bracelet are well-preserved, appear unpolished, and show signs of wear consistent with their age. The gold Gadroon dial has a couple of small age-related blemish spots. The integrated bracelet, a critical component for these models, has retained its structural integrity. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
A Statement Of Unapologetic Style
The Piaget Polo is for someone who appreciates the design language of the late 70s and 80s, an era of bold choices and confident luxury. This is not a subtle watch, nor is it meant to be. It is a conversation piece that sidesteps the usual suspects, offering a different kind of vintage prestige. It wears like a bracelet, its fluid lines making it exceptionally comfortable on the wrist. It is a choice for someone who wants to wear a piece of design history.

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….
