Limelight Gala Precious Zenith

LIMELIGHT GALA

PIAGET’S LIMELIGHT GALA IS A CELEBRATION OF EXTRAORDINARY WOMEN

Women who are creative, inspiring, empowering, and independent. It was first unveiled in the seventies with a now-iconic design incorporating sen- sual lines, a cambered case, and asymmetrical lugs. Almost half a century later and the Limelight Gala continues to turn heads with its perfectly inte- grated gold case and bracelet, and lugs adorned with exquisite gemstones.

The name of the collection was inspired by the Piaget Society and its fabulous parties with film stars, artists, clients, and friends of the Maison who shared a certain art de vivre. Celebrities such as Salvador Dali, Jackie Kennedy, Elizabeth Taylor, Andy Warhol, Cary Grant, and Sami Davis Jr., would join Piaget for these unforgettable moments together.

In a tribute to the Limelight Gala and its illustrious history, Piaget is pre- senting six new limited editions for Watches & Wonders 2021.

LIMELIGHT GALA PRECIOUS LIMITED EDITIONS

Three delightful new coloured Limelight Gala Precious timepieces are being presented in blue, yellow, and pink. The three colours follow the course of the sun throughout the day, with blue for the morning sky, yellow represen- ting the sun at its zenith, and pink depicting the glow of the setting sun.

Each model is adorned with a flowing gradient of coloured sapphires and diamonds that start in intense hues around the bezel and gently lighten as they reach the tips of the lugs.

Finding the exact shade and size of sapphire is an art in itself as Piaget’s gemmologists sift through countless stones to be able to create a seamless swirl of colour with the perfect transition from gemstone to gemstone.

Each model is powered by the automatic movement, Piaget’s Calibre 501P1.

LIMELIGHT GALA PRECIOUS ZENITH

The brightness of the sun as it reaches its zenith comes to life in Piaget’s Limelight Gala Pre- cious Zenith. An array of yellow sapphires and diamonds evoke all the dazzle and splendour from the midday sun.

THE LIMELIGHT GALA PRECIOUS ZENITH IS LIMITED TO 8 PIECES.

Housed in a 32mm 18K white gold case, a gradient of sunny yellow gemstones cir- cles the bezel with 32 brilliant-cut yellow sapphires (approx. 4.70 cts.) transitioning to 10 brilliant-cut diamonds (approx. 0.90 ct.), starting with the deepest yellow in the centre and radiating out along the lugs.

The dial features a snow setting of diamonds for maximum sparkle (289 in total, with approx. 1.76 cts.) and a high- jewellery bracelet continues the colour scheme in a river of diamonds and yellow sapphires that are set in such a way that the bracelet feels like a second skin on the wrist. The bracelet includes 124 brilliant-cut yellow sapphires (approx. 4.58 cts.) and 276 brilliant-cut diamonds (approx. 9.95 cts.).
