Piaget Altiplano automatic ultra-thin watchThe Swiss watch making brand is well-known for its in-house ultra-thin automatic calibers. Entering the business of hairbreadth-thin movements in 1957, Piaget continues its journey with the new Altiplano model powered by their newest Calibre 1208P automatic movement.Being only 2.35 mm thick, the movement is 29.9 mm in diameter (perhaps, Piaget’s engineers needed more real estate for the micro-rotor, which is made of 22-carat yellow gold) hence the relatively large case 43 mm in diameter and 5.25 mm thick.Although in its press release Piaget calls its new movement “the thinnest” on the market and uses the word “record” six times, I may remind you that the Calibre 1208P in only 0.1mm thinner than Audemars Piguet’s Calibre 2120/2802 self-winding movement with its full-fledged perpetual calendar complication.The Piaget Altiplano can only display hours, minutes and seconds.Well, at least it will be much less expensive, I suppose.

US actor Ben Affleck has sported a timepiece by Piaget for the movie The Company Men, film buffs who are also enthusiastic about watches may notice.The Hollywood actor dons a Piaget Polo Forty-Five for a few scenes in the film, which is easy to spot thanks to its 45mm titanium case, Watch ID reported.Some of the other features which can be gleaned from the timepiece include a solid black dial, which is detailed with a series of silver-coloured details, as well as luminescent hour markers, so that time can be read with ease.The watch may also have provided Affleck, who also has experience in movie writing and directing, with plenty of comfort, thanks to a rubber strap finishing off the look.Piaget has a wealth of knowledge in the accessory world, having first formed back in 1874 and launching its first range of jewellery timepieces in the 1960s.
