Piaget Tank 9254 - 18K White Gold, Lapis Lazuli Diamond Dial
A Masterpiece Of Understated Form
During the 1970s, Piaget established itself as the master of the ultra-thin dress watch, combining its record-breaking mechanical movements with an adventurous use of precious metals and stone dials. The reference 9254 is a perfect expression of this era, taking the classic tank form and rendering it in solid 18K white gold. The centerpiece is a deep, immaculate Lapis Lazuli dial, a material that made Piaget a standout for its willingness to embrace bold color and natural patterns. This is a watch defined by its clean lines and the inherent beauty of its materials.
An Immaculate Stone Dial
What elevates this specific example is the condition and quality of its lapis dial. Free of any cracks or fractures, the stone is a vibrant, deep blue punctuated by beautiful natural inclusions that make each dial unique. Set with simple diamond indices, the dial is clean and minimalist, allowing the organic texture of the stone to take center stage. Paired with the cool tone of the white gold case, the watch achieves a look that is both luxurious and discreet.
Honest And Exceptional Condition
The watch is in very good overall condition. The 18K white gold case is sharp, and the crystal is immaculate. Critically, the lapis lazuli dial is uncracked and perfectly preserved, which is the most important factor for any vintage stone dial Piaget. The watch is fitted to a leather strap with its original Piaget white gold buckle. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
The Quietly Confident Dress Watch
This is for the person who wants a beautiful and low-key dress watch with genuine character. It’s a piece that doesn't need to shout to be noticed. The manual wind movement, likely the legendary Caliber 9P, requires a daily interaction that creates a real connection between the owner and the watch. It is a subtle but powerful statement of taste, perfect for someone who appreciates the intersection of high horology and natural art.

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!!!
