piaget watch 937

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.
