At the upcoming Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie fair in Geneva, Swiss manufacture Piaget will present three of its newest timepieces, the Emperador XL 700P, the Limelight Gala Milanese and the Limelight Stella.
The Emperador Coussin XL 700P is a 118-piece limited series concept watch featuring an uncommon pairing of a mechanical calibre and generator, creating the new 700P movement; The generator electronically regulates the self-winding caliber with a quartz component that controls the rotation of the generator and wheels train, ensuring high precision and resistance to magnetic fields and gravity. The Limelight Gala is an exquisitely feminine watch, with a bezel set with gently graded round diamonds and a simple dial elegantly punctuated by slender Roman numerals. Finally, the Limelight Stella, another stunning ladies timepiece, features a lunar theme with a moon phase complication that occupies a fan-shaped aperture on the upper portion of the dial, hemmed by two lines set with 14 brilliant-cut diamonds—the moon stands out against a deep-blue star-studded backdrop depicting the sky chart of the Northern Hemisphere.
