DESCRIPTION

  • Piaget Altiplano Double Jeu 43 mm – Calibres 838P / 832P

    While the technical inventiveness of a great watch manufacturer can be measured by its portfolio of movements, its aesthetic inventiveness is gauged by the creativity of its timepieces. In this respect, the expertise in the field of mechanical ultra-thin calibres acquired by the Manufacture de Haute Horlogerie Piaget not only enables it to set new records, but also stimulates its designers’ imagination by giving them the possibility of creating such daring models as the Altiplano Double Jeu watch.

    Representing a genuine exception among current production, this watch was first commercialised in 2007 and met with immediate success. It actually consists of two watches, featuring extremely slender cases and ultra-thin movements that enable them to be superimposed so as to form just one – at least apparently so. The result is a decidedly avant-garde, generously sized 43 mm-diameter watch equipped with two calibres driving different time displays on each dial, a particularly useful function for travellers. The upper dial, powered by mechanical hand-wound Calibre 838P, is adjusted to the time zone of the destination, while the lower one driven by hand-wound Calibre 832P remains set to the time in the place of departure.

    In developing the new Calibre 832P based on the ultra-thin Calibre 830P, the Manufacture de Haute Horlogerie wished to further enhance the sophistication of the Double Jeu concept by providing travellers with a dual time-zone displayed on a 24-hour scale rather than just 12 hours. To achieve this, the master-watchmakers had to modify the hour wheel and to install a new minute mechanism that enables a display running from 1 to 24. This technical solution enables an extremely original display on the lower dial entirely in keeping with the spirit of this atypical watch. It is also perfectly legible, since the 24 hours appear on a single hour scale. This complication provides its wearer with the assurance, even when he’s on the other side of the world, of being able to call his children to say good night rather than when they are on their way to school…

    Like all movements from the Manufacture de Haute Horlogerie Piaget, the new Calibre 832P is finished with meticulous care, including bevelled bridges adorned with circular Côtes de Genève, a circular-grained mainplate and traditional blued screws. The new Altiplano Double Jeu model equipped with Calibre 838P and with the new Calibre 832P is available in two versions: 18-carat pink or white gold, each fitted with a sapphire crystal beneath the upper case and a solid back engraved with the Piaget coat-of-arms beneath the lower case.
