There’s nothing more classic and appealing than a simple dress watch.
Though to be fair, when we say “simple,” we mean “uncomplicated” — not unattractive! The 21st century saw a plethora of such watches hit the market. Generally available on leather straps and featuring two or three hands, these reliable wristwatches kept time during the classiest decades of the past 100 years. However, some were more innovative than others.
This particular dress watch from Piaget — which specialized in ultra-thin watchmaking — is one such example.
It features an 18k white gold case with a fantastic, integrated white gold bracelet with 'bark' finishing and a signed locking clasp, a 'bark' finished bezel, and mineral crystal. Inside you'll find a striking sunburst grey dial with beautiful applied faceted indices, a matching 'dauphine' handset, and an automatic winding movement.
Flip the watch over and you will find a small engraving that ready "Asprey" — denoting that this piece was very likely retailed at one of the Asprey locations around the world.
In excellent overall condition, this piece dating to circa the 1980s is a funky piece from a time when Swiss manufacturers were experimenting with new shapes and designs.
What better way to dress to the nines than with a stunning watch like this on your wrist?
