Here are some interesting skeletonized versions of Piaget's new Polo 45 (FortyFive) collection timepieces. I spotted these watches at Piaget, though I don't believe there has been any press about them. Piaget may be waiting to announce them, but here they are. There is a chronograph and three-hand version, and they are pretty much the same Piaget Polo 45 you are now familiar with, but with stylized, skeletonized dials. Under the dials is the in-house made Piaget movement with perlage polish. The the dials retain all the necessary markers and numerals, but are otherwise skeletonzied. A liberal amount of red is used adding to the sporty feel of the watch. Many people feel that the Piaget Polo FortyFive watch collection was a mistake to begin with. Being overpriced and under-styled. Others really liked it though - and for those people I think these skeletonized models will be a hit. Piaget uses a large red circle over the date window, which is a nice touch. I don't think these watches have the typical Piaget polish that we are used to, but that isn't really what the Polo FortyFive collection is all about. While the hour markers do a good job of popping out on the dial, the hands need a lot of improvement to be legible enough. I understand that these skeletonized Polo FortyFive watches are going to be commercially available but in limited amounts. Look for them sometime this year at a price that is likely a slight premium over the standard Piaget Polo FortyFive automatic or chronograph models.

Piaget is all set to redefine luxurious timepieces with its latest watch concept for 2009. Known as the Limelight Twice, it is a truly unique watch with an asymmetrical design. The exceptional watch is said to be endowed with a dual nature that is capable of showing itself demure or extrovert according to one's mood. Two separate Piaget 56P quartz movements drive each of the faces of the watch, thus permitting them to display two different time zones. A beauty, other technical features include a new integration mode for the case and bracelet, and a hidden time-setting push-button. A true jewel, this mesmerizing timepiece is definitely a class apart.
