Is Piaget A Luxury Watch Brand?

Yes, Piaget is a luxury brand and has a long and prestigious history in watchmaking and they’ve become known for their craftmanship and elegance. Since its founding in 1874, Piaget watches stands alongside the most established brands in the world of luxury watches.

Piaget first focused on making watch parts and it wasn’t until the 1920’s that they started to actually make full-fledged timepieces. Piaget is known for their creation of the thinnest movements. In 1957, they brough out the first ultra-thin hand-wound mechanical movement at 2mm. And shortly after in 1960 came the thinnest automatic movement in the world at 2.3mm – which was even made official by the Guinness Book of Records.

Interestingly enough, Piaget didn’t put their name on their dials until the 1940’s, but once this branding began, they became known to make some of the most luxurious slimline dress watches. And their luxury name still holds true to this day, with Piaget watches being made with elegant yet lightweight designs.

Because this luxury watch brand holds so much to its name, Piaget watches are a great choice to add to your collection, whether it be a new or vintage Piaget watch.
