First presented as a ‘concept only watch’ at the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie —SIHH—in 2018, it is worth revisiting the world’s thinnest mechanical watch at only 2 mm thin, now that the regular production Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Concept Watch has been released at Watches & Wonders 2020. This feat of horology is finally now available for purchase and more than one is eager to see live pictures of it. Well, look no further as we have here live pictures of the concept watch that is identical —other than the dial— to the new Piaget Altiplano Ultimate Concept Watch just unveiled.

It was in La Côte-aux-Fées that Georges-Edouard Piaget set up his first workshop in the family farmhouse and devoted himself to producing high-precision movements. This was back in 1874 and marked the start of an ever-growing reputation. In 1943, the company took a decision that would prove crucial to its future by registering its brand name. Faithful to its pioneering spirit, Piaget in the late 1950s set about designing and manufacturing the ultra-thin movements that would become one of the Maison’s signatures and leave a lasting impression on watchmaking.
