A picture of the Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Concept
It is really impressive: 2mm... you have the feeling to wear a sheet of paper... Fx ...
Outstanding!! Wow!
The watches you guys get to see... I'm humbled everyday I visit Purists.
Visibility is not so good
Are there two hands on this watch? I only see the minute hand
The game
Beautiful to see the Piaget. The game with Bvlgari, which of them make the thinest watch.
Whatever you do....
don't attempt to bake a soufflé between quarter past and half past the hour ;-)
Very reminiscent of art movements in the early 20th century

Such an amazing timepiece indeed
The various videos out in watchland really show it's wonders!
Piaget has done extraordinary things with thin movements since the 1950s. What they're achieving now with the Altiplano is amazing.
While I admire the sheer technical bravura, I like watches with heft. It's why I prefer steel or precious metals over titanium and/or carbon fibre. It's a personal preference that doesn't take anything away from the excellence pictured above.
