You have been tricked again!
That was Yann's twin brother, Thomas.
You may be seeing more of Thomas as his regional responsibilities change soon..........
When I saw the new Piaget automatic tourbillon, I thought of the few owners who could fit the target profile. You were one of my short list!
I'm undecided about the glass dial, which mimics a fenestrated dial.
What is lovely to you?
Regards,
MTF
Beautiful!

My jealousy knows no bounds, MTF! I would love to wear one of these beauties on my wrist! You are so lucky to have experienced such a unique and audacious piece in the metal. Piaget completely took me by surprise with this one. I love the modern dial, whi...
Well,

I was surprised simply because I did not follow Piaget closely before and didn't feel a particularly strong affection to the timepieces that I saw, even with the Emperador Coussin which was always the best looking range of theirs for me (due to the case d...

I usually cap my round watch diameter at 42mm and prefer 40mm but the secret must be: 1) curved cushion shape that allows a larger watch to sit snugly evenon the smaller wrist. 2) ultra-thin case is enhanced by the larger diameter; it looks even thinner t...
I guess this is a watch to be seen in the flesh before any final judgement.

I mean, aesthetically, of course. Horologically, nothing else to say than WOW, a big, huge WOW. Aaah, yes, maybe congratulations to Piaget. No, the only thing which makes me doubt is the very strong aesthetics. It may be a pro, but also a con. To be seen ...
You got to wear it?

Sighhhhhhhhhhhh. I should be so lucky. I didn't really appreciate from the teaser that the rotor and tourbillon cage subtly form the lucky symbol '8' on the dial. Is this particularly aimed at the asian market? Or is it just coincidental and asian buyers ...
Geometrically complex . . .

. . . with a nominally round case imposed over a nominally square dial, which in turn is divided by thirds, each section displaying circular motion of varying rates and predictability. The æsthetic effect in these static photos is appealing, but I wonder ...
