Beauty, precision, perfection and compactness – are the main characteristics to aspire to modern high horology. The famous Swiss brand Piaget boldly continues to experiment and create ultra-thin model wrist watch.

“Release of the new Emperador Coussin Tourbillon Automatic mark set two records: 5.55 mm thick gauge are 1207P and 10.4 mm – the thickness of the watch.”Some wheels have a thickness of 0.12 mm, which corresponds to the thickness of a human hair. The absolute minimum is present in the size of all the details. Dial model made of ultra-thin sapphire glass and marked with a laser “, – explained Tuzo.
Another original idea from the masters of company – the crown in an unusual place. “Set the crown on the front side, it was decided in the process. This feature further enhances the vivid nature of the new hours, which will then be complicated by new features – all find a place “- Frank assured Tuzo.
