Confirmed by the Piaget Archival registers, the present timepiece was delivered in 1970.
Striking, rare, and unapologetically opulent, the present Piaget Tiger’s Eye Sautoir necklace watch epitomizes the daring creativity and luxurious spirit of Piaget during the 1970s. The piece possesses an undeniable sense of substance and presence, far surpassing the typically delicate construction of most necklace watches from the period. Extraordinary, it total weight is an impressive 253.9 grams.
The impressive and lavish double-chain Sautoir necklace, fully signed by the Maison, is adorned with five suspended Tiger’s Eye ornaments—each paired with polished gold bars and beads of varying lengths—that directly echo and complement the striking Tiger’s Eye dial. This cohesive design creates a harmonious visual rhythm, drawing the eye to the dial that is a superb slice of stone, alive with rich, shifting bands of golden and chestnut tones that dance and transform with every movement and change of light. At first glance, the watch may appear inverted—yet this thoughtful design allows the wearer to read the time effortlessly when worn, underscoring Piaget’s marriage of whimsy and practicality. Boldly avant-garde yet elegant, and deeply evocative of the Space Age aesthetic that defined the era, the piece transcends mere jewelry or timekeeping to become a wearable work of art—an exceptionally rare and lavish creation, equally suited to the discerning collector or as a statement of refined, high-fashion glamour.
