Piaget Polo - Two Tone YG Integrated Bracelet and Dial
A High-Jewelry Expression Of The 1980s
The Piaget 7131 is a masterclass in the brand’s "watchmaking as jewelry" philosophy that dominated the late 1970s and 80s. While a standard 7131 is already a significant statement in solid gold, this execution features factory-integrated diamonds set directly into the gadroons of the case and continuing through the bracelet. These are not merely accents; the stones are woven into the architecture of the gold, creating a seamless flow of light that terminates at the deep black dial. The contrast between the obsidian-like dial and the brilliant-cut diamonds highlights the geometric precision that Piaget is known for.
Exceptional Craftsmanship And Integrated Design
In an era when most brands were focused on utilitarian tool watches, Piaget was perfecting the ultra-thin luxury watch. This reference matters because it showcases the brand’s ability to treat 18K gold like fabric, creating an integrated bracelet that feels more like a cuff than a series of links. The black dial serves as a void that pulls focus toward the diamond-set gadroons, emphasizing the horizontal lines that define the case. It is a design that remains a benchmark for the period, representing a level of hand-finishing that is increasingly rare in modern production.
Virtually a New Old Stock Survivor
The condition of this piece is exceptional and sits firmly in the category of a true survivor. The 18K yellow gold case and bracelet are incredibly sharp, with factory lines that look untouched; it presents as if it has been worn fewer than ten times in its entire life. Most notably, it still retains the original factory sticker on the caseback—a purple and white vintage decal indicating the date for the next battery change. Finding a watch of this age with such a delicate piece of history still intact is a rarity. Mechanically, the watch is running strong after passing our test bench.
The Definitive Gold And Diamond Statement
This is for the collector who wants the absolute best example of an era-defining Piaget. It works because it doesn't just represent the 80s; it represents the highest possible tier of luxury from that time. The combination of the deep black dial and the integrated diamonds makes it a centerpiece for any collection. Because of its "near deadstock" condition and the presence of the original caseback sticker, it is a piece that is virtually impossible to replace. It is an honest, brilliant, and remarkably preserved example of high-jewelry watchmaking.

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!!!
