PRESS RELEASE The new Piaget Emperador Coussin Tourbillon Automatic Ultra-Thin is entirely in line with the brand’s DNA and sets a new record for the world’s thinnest self-winding tourbillon watch measuring a mere 10.4 mm. This daringly contemporary creat...  

It's elegant and thin, but fresh, technical, and playful. The "inside out" nature of the movement serving as the dial is right up my alley. I love the unusual display, and the whimsy of having the rotor on the dial. Despite the novelty factor of this dial... 

I can't wait to see it in the metal ! I really think that the cushion shape case works great with the complication. The dial is very animated with a contemporary design. Thanks Daos for the news ! Fr.Xavier

I bet you will see it before me in the flesh. I imagine the dial will seem very "alive" given the combo of tourbillon and rotor. The cushion case is so lovely and unusual. I like these less common variants! Cheers, Daos

if not for my small wrists..

Some models are housed in larger cushion cases then others (this piece is obviously on the larger end of the spectrum at 46.5mm, some are in 42mm cases). I do find this novelty stunning! You'll have to look at it on your wrist before making a final decisi... 

its my puny wrists and me not able to get along comfortable for any sustainable period with watches 42mm and up.

No message body

However, it is likely to be too big for my wrist. Nevertheless, allow me to volunteer to be the first to provide an on-the-wrist review for this watch. Please ask Piaget to deliver the watch to my house. I will need 6 months of wear time in order to evalu... 

...for an on-the-wrist review! It's definitely a large watch, but I'm curious how it would wear. I like the smaller Emperador Coussin cases a lot. Well, the reality is that likely very few of these watches will be made and they are destined to be extremel... 

is mind-bending gorgeous! Everything seems to be in a perfect balance of shape, fit and finish! It might just be the most beautiful tourbillon watch I've ever seen! Your description of the 'layered effect of the dial' giving the piece its mesmerizing sens... 

Will post as soon as I can. MTF

the rotor on front where the dial is looks great! I also like the asymetric layout of the front of the watch with the rotor, tourbillon cage, and the watch hand placement. I can't wait to see what else is unveiled at SIHH. Best regards, Dino

It's technical and modern, but it showcases so many of Piaget's traditional hallmarks. I'm very interested to see it in person. I think we're in for an awesome SIHH, Dino! Cheers, Daos

I really love the thought put into this timepiece. In fact, the first piece from Piaget that really caught my eye was the Altiplano Eccentric Small Seconds and keep in mind, I never liked and acknowledged the significance of a thin watch BUT since that da... 

I agree that this watch looks to be an excellent fusion of Piaget's past with its vision for the future. Welcome here to the Piaget forum! I look forward to reading your thoughts, particularly on the new models that will be unveiled soon! Cheers, Daos

a stunning dial--wonderfully balanced, and quite a feat given its height..... thanks for sharing, J

...stunned when I saw this piece -- such a fresh take on the micro-rotor, but it doesn't feel gimmicky. Cheers, Daos

Stunning movement and look. Maybe a bit too big, but extremely handsome. Hope to see it next thursday at the SIHH. Thanks. Vte

...report back if you see the white gold version at SIHH. I also prefer that model over the rose gold (but both look to be stunning!). Cheers, Daos

If the WG is at the SIHH, don't worry, we are going to see many pics of it. Best. Vte
