This watch is accompanied by a Piaget presentation box with outer packaging, Certificate of Authenticity and Warranty Certificate dated 17 July 2006, promotional DVD and a pair of 18k white gold and onyx-set cuff links.

It took three years for Piaget to create this tourbillon mechanism in a shaped movement of just 3.5.mm thickness. The three bridges of the tourbillon carriage are made of titanium, a particularly resistant and lightweight material and the entire carriage barely weighs 0.2 gramme.
