Watches World - Men's and women's Piaget watches.
The history of the legendary brand begins with the opening of a small watch workshop by Georges Piaget in 1874. Impeccable and high-precision mechanisms were then created on a family farm and supplied to famous watch brands. A solid foundation for the success of the Swiss Piaget manufactory was laid by the son of J. Piaget, Timothée Piaget. And in 1943, the company registered its own trademark.
It became possible to gain international recognition and expand the boundaries of geography thanks to the great enthusiasm and work of the great-grandchildren of the founder of the brand. So, Piaget is building a new manufactory, the distinctive feature of which is innovative developments in the field of ultrathin mechanisms. The beginning of this was the release of the 9P mechanism with manual winding and a height of only 2 mm.
