You already know that a good watch is the perfect complement to any look. You've probably already talked about Piaget watches and their Altiplano line, which claim to be the best watch on the market. The truth is, these are practically insurmountable works of art, apart from, of course, themselves.
The new SIHH 2018 has just been released with a width of
only 2mm, making it the world's flattest watch with all the luxurious features
that have always been in a Piaget watch. It is definitely a watch that has left
its mark, prompting competitors to challenge them. Whether it can be done or
not, one thing is for sure: it will be a difficult step.
Piaget's Altiplano Ultimate Concept is a name to be
respected in modern watchmaking. This is because it is currently the thinnest
automatic watch in the world.
Presented at SIHH 2018, the Altiplano Ultimate Concept is
accurate to 2 mm across the entire watch thickness (not just the movement). It
is also the successor to the Piaget 900P, which was previously 3.65mm thick.
Piaget has reinvented the principles of watch design,
with particular attention to balance and balance spring, and with special care
we mean that they have abandoned the balance valve, damping system and balance
axis. This is the biggest influence on the creation of one of Piaget's thinnest
profiles.
