Piaget Altiplano Collection

Piaget dates the birth of its ultra-thin collection and the Altiplano design to 1957, when it presented the hand-wound 9P calibre, just 2 mm thick. In 1960 came the 12P, a 2.3 mm automatic with a micro-rotor, which Piaget calls the world’s thinnest automatic movement of its time. Piaget’s own timeline lists the 38 mm white gold Altiplano in 2004, and the Altiplano Ultimate Concept is a 41 mm hand-wound watch with a cobalt-alloy case only 2 mm thick.
