Piaget<br />

Altiplano 900 P<br />

FOR HER<br />

The Piaget Altiplano 900P is the world’s thinnest mechanical watch. It measures in at a slim 3.65mm when fully cased.<br />

To reduce the thickness, the inner caseback serves as the mainplate of the movement. The 900P, although it first<br />

debuted in 2013, wouldn’t have been possible without the invention of the revolutionary Calibre 9P in 1957 that<br />

served as the bedrock for Piaget’s pursuit of ultra-thin watchmaking records.<br />

This year, to celebrate the 60th anniversary of that storied calibre, Piaget has debuted an all-new Altiplano 900P<br />

(ref G0A42110). The 38mm case of this anniversary edition timepiece is made from 18k rose gold. The screws<br />

which are visible on the dial match the colour of the case while the white alligator-skin strap lifts this horological<br />

hero into the realm of elegant dress-watches. The star of the show though is obviously the mechanical winding<br />

movement which has 145 components and boasts a power reserve of 48hours. It’s limited to just 200 pieces. Turn one<br />

on its side, and it disappears.<br />
