Piaget Black Tie dual time zone - comments?
Hi,
I have been unable to find a dual time that I really love. I've bought and then sold several. The PAM 88 was just too heavy, especially to travel with which is the whole point. The Patek was nice but just a bit too small (my everyday is an IWC Big Pilot). The FM Master Bankers have one time zone too many for me and are a bit fussy. I've just run across the Piaget Black Tie Emperador cushion and like the looks of it (although I have yet to see it in person). Nice mix of dressy and sporty. Simple dual time treatment, without other unnecessary complications. But I've always thought of Piaget as a flashy jewellery brand - overpriced for watches, much like Hermes. I would be very grateful for comments on the brand overall and on this timepiece in particular.
Thanks.
