In the world of luxury timepieces, few names evoke a sense of timeless elegance and exquisite craftsmanship quite like Piaget. Georges-Édouard Piaget, at age 19, first set up his workshop on his family farm in the village of La Côte-aux-Fées, Switzerland in 1874. He lived by the motto of "always do better than necessary." Piaget quickly garnered a reputation for high quality. By 1910, the company was flourishing, but it was to adapt and evolve under the guidance of Timothée Piaget, Georges-Édouard’s son. He took over the company in 1911 and transformed it into a full-fledged manufacturer of luxury watches—not just their movements. The avant-garde style Piaget Polo watch was introduced in 1979, quickly becoming a well-known and loved collection in the brand’s long history. It is forever tied the brand to the "sport of kings" and became a mark of true wealth and luxury. The company would move forward to produce the Dancer collection in 1986 and was conceived as a timepiece that would embody the grace and fluidity suggested by its name, while also showcasing Piaget’s technical expertise and aesthetic sensibility. One of the most distinctive features of the Dancer is its integrated bracelet, which is characterized by articulated links that mimic the fluidity of a dancer’s movements. Yves Piaget, great-grandson of Georges-Édouard, has been president of the Piaget company since 1980. Under his guidance, the name became synonymous with elegance, splendour and "beautiful people." It was his influence that led to the creation of the Piaget Society, spectacular events held in cities around the world, hosting Piaget’s wealthiest, most famous, and most influential patrons. Piaget was purchased in 1988 by the Vendôme group, now called Richemont.
