Piaget Polo Squelette Ceramics unveiled at Watches and Wonders Shanghai

To celebrate the opening of Watches and Wonders Shanghai, Piaget presents the Piaget Polo Squelette Céramique, a new emblematic timepiece that marks the entry of ceramics into the House’s universe.

The House of Piaget, true to its commitment to watchmaking innovation and excellence, unveils the Piaget Polo Squelette Céramique, a watch that combines audacity and sophistication. For the first time, the Piaget Polo Squelette collection welcomes ceramics, a refined and innovative material the fruit of three years of creation. Adorned with an ultra-black finish, this model transcends traditional codes to offer a modern vision of luxury watchmaking.

Since its launch in 1979, the Piaget Polo collection has embodied sporting elegance, uniting elite sports enthusiasts and the sophisticated jet-set of the Piaget Society. This perfectly unisex watch quickly became a symbol of style. The Piaget Polo Squelette Céramique, with its ultra-fine aesthetics and exceptional finishes, continues this tradition while introducing ceramics for the first time.

Ceramics and ultra-fine: a perfect union

The marriage of ceramics with the art of skeletonization is a challenge that Piaget meets brilliantly. The material, both robust and light, blends into the Maison’s signature aesthetic, offering a model that is both extravagant and discreet. The watch features a ceramic case only 7.5 mm thick, a feat for a skeleton timepiece with an automatic movement. Ceramic, integrated into the watch’s ultra-thin design, recalls Piaget’s commitment to innovation.

This Piaget Polo Squelette Céramique is powered by the Manufacture caliber 1200S1, an extra-flat skeletonized movement that highlights the House’s watchmaking expertise. Superluminova® details add striking contrast, illuminating the indexes, hands and, for the first time, the Piaget logo on the oscillating weight. The interchangeable bracelet, first introduced on the Piaget Polo Quantième Perpétuel Extra-Plate in 2023, adds a touch of stylistic diversity, with options in black rubber, steel, titanium, or blue rubber.

Piaget and Paris: an echo of luxury tradition

Although the new watch will be unveiled in Shanghai, it is fully in keeping with the luxury heritage of Paris, which has always influenced Piaget’s creations. Paris, the capital of style and innovation, is the beating heart of fashion and design, values that are reflected in every Piaget timepiece. The bold, elegant Piaget Polo Squelette Céramique pays tribute to this tradition, while paving the way for a new era in watchmaking.

The Piaget Polo Squelette Céramique, presented at Watches and Wonders Shanghai, is not just a watch; it’s a statement of style, a perfect fusion of tradition and modernity. For luxury watch lovers and design enthusiasts alike, this model embodies the spirit of innovation that has driven Piaget since its inception.
