Four Favorites For Mothers’ Day

The day when we celebrate and pay tribute to the most important woman in our lives, the one that introduced us to the world, is around the corner. While many gifts come to mind, few are as appropriate as a watch, as this is a perfect reminder of all the special times we have shared, and are about to share, with here. Here are four of our personal favorites:

Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Concept; Customize The Watch That Won The GPHG

Piaget's most complex watch is not a Grande Sonnerie or multi-axis tourbillon, but a modest time-only. No additional complications are added because the watch itself is the complication. With a thickness of just 2mm is the Altiplano Ultimate Concept, the world's thinnest mechanical watch. To achieve this, every single part of the watch had to be completely redesigned. Piaget was entering a territory where nobody has gone before, not even themselves, as they already have a solid reputation of being one of the most skilled makers of ultra-slim movements.

Bovet And Piaget Win Big At GPHG

This year's edition of the GPHG, the Oscars of the watch world, was quite different than the years before. What is usually a phenomenal black-tie event was now heavily scaled down due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The event could be followed online by watch enthusiasts and industry insiders around the globe, who saw a few surprising, and a few not so surprising winners.

Four Watches That Prove That Thin Is In

While no official standards are indicating when a watch can be called (ultra-)thin, it is reasonably easy to pass your judgment about it. The heights of both the movement and the watch itself are common knowledge for most watches, and can therefore be compared to the record-holders in a specific category. Especially in recent years thin movements, and watches, have become en vogue again, as many people realized that in a sense they represent the nec plus ultra of the watch industry. Watches like the Bulgari Octo Finissimo also showed that it is not only classic dress watches that can benefit from this. Even the cool-factor of a modern-looking watch for every day, and every occasion, increases significantly when powered by an ultra-thin movement. Leave it to the following four watches to that thin is in.

Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Concept: The King Of Ultra-Thin

How thin can you go? For Piaget, this has been a question that they have been answering since the late 1950s, and early 1960s when they already set records with their manual wind caliber 9P and automatic caliber 12P. At the time, the goal wasn't purely to create the thinnest watch on the market, but more to give Piaget's designers as much freedom as possible when they create their timepieces. When we fast forward to today, we see a slightly different perspective. While Piaget's ultra-slim movements still give freedom to its designers and find their way in beautiful watches, being thin has gotten an appeal of its own.

Slimming Down for the Season: Ultra-Thin Watches

Now that summer is coming to an end and fall is just around the corner, now is a good time to swap out those colorful water-ready timepieces for something more restrained. Step into the world of ultra-thin watches, where mastery is measured in how few millimeters a case height reaches. From a simpler time and date version to a complex tourbillon and a few surprises in between, here are four incredible ultra-thin watches to show us how it’s done.

Four Men’s Watches With Diamonds That Are Too Tempting To Turn Down

But even those who are counting themselves among the last category might be tempted to at least, adjust their opinion with the following four watches. They are either quite subtle or go all in, but all bring something very special to the table that makes them in one way or another too tempting to turn down.

Watch of the Week: Piaget Altiplano

Class pur sang, that is, and always has been the Piaget Altiplano. A refined case, which is so distinctly understated that connoisseurs immediately know that they are looking at something special, houses a movement that comes from a royal lineage of ultra-slim movements.
