Perhaps the most dramatic new women's watch in Piaget's 2025 lineup is the Sixtie, featuring a soft yet strong trapeze-shaped case that pays tribute to the 1960s—the origins of the Maison's creative force. This contemporary classic draws inspiration from the trapeze shape that played such a vital role in Piaget's artistic journey, particularly in the 1969 Swinging Sautoirs of the 21st Century collection.

Named for the sixty seconds that turn into a minute and the sixty minutes that turn into an hour, as well as Piaget's imagination and skill rooted in the 1960s, the Sixtie represents the culmination of the Maison's play of shapes—a joyously irreverent game that began in the mid-1960s, toying with traditions, breaking boundaries, and playing with shape, form, light, and luster.

The geometric trapeze form of the Sixtie's case measures 32mm at its widest point and 26mm at its narrowest, with a thickness of just 6.4mm. This asymmetrical case is lusciously softened, with angles that seem to melt into strong yet sensual lines, creating a shape that shifts between trapeze, square, round, and cushion. This free-spirited and free-form design is liberated from conventional constraints, embodying Piaget's true style.

The finely chased gadroons of the deep bezel reference the Piaget 14101 (the Beta 21 quartz watch), the first timepiece to incorporate such chiseled lines. Each gadroon is individually engraved by hand, with approximately 20 hours of work required to achieve the perfect three-dimensional effect that creates a captivating play of light across the bezel. This meticulous finishing also recalls the iconic Andy Warhol watch and the glamorous Piaget Society of the 1970s.

The satin-finished dial features applied golden hour markers and baton hands that blend harmoniously with the clean lines of Roman numerals. The crystal is slightly domed, adding to the vintage aesthetic while providing excellent readability from any angle.

The Sixtie's meticulously articulated bracelet demonstrates Piaget's exceptional mastery of gold. Composed of 63 individual trapezoid links, each measuring between 6-10mm in width, it slithers around the wrist with supple playfulness, exuding a vintage flavor reminiscent of 1940s glamour and the chunky gold bracelets worn by 1960s stars and socialites. Each link is individually polished and assembled by hand, requiring approximately 25 hours of craftsmanship to complete a single bracelet. The design also showcases Piaget's signature integration of case and bracelet, function and beauty, watch and jewel—all in perfect harmony.

At the heart of the Sixtie beats Piaget's caliber 501P, a self-winding mechanical movement measuring 3.4mm in thickness, providing a power reserve of 42 hours. This movement is adorned with traditional fine watchmaking decorations including circular Côtes de Genève, beveled bridges, and blued screws visible through the sapphire caseback.

The year 1969 marked a pivotal creative renaissance for Piaget when the Maison ventured beyond conventional watchmaking boundaries by sending its designers to Paris couture shows. This unprecedented move resulted in the landmark 21st Century Collection, where Piaget forever changed the relationship between jewelry and timekeeping. In 2025, Piaget expands this revolutionary spirit with new additions to its Swinging Sautoir and Hidden Treasures collections.

The new Swinging Sautoirs offer an unprecedented level of individuality, reminiscent of the original 21st Century Collection's spirit. These dramatic pieces feature an array of colorful ornamental stones, including vibrant ruby-root, turquoise, and tiger-eye, all meticulously set on Piaget's iconic hand-woven gold chains. Each chain undergoes a painstaking threading process by Piaget's master goldsmiths, with individual gold threads carefully woven to create a supple yet durable structure that drapes elegantly around the neck. The asymmetrical trapeze-shaped case, measuring approximately 28mm across its widest point, hangs elegantly from these long swinging sautoirs, creating a dynamic and sophisticated statement piece that transcends traditional notions of watchmaking.

Inside each Swinging Sautoir beats Piaget's ultra-thin hand-wound mechanical movement, the caliber 9P, measuring just 2mm in thickness – a testament to the Maison's historical expertise in ultra-thin watchmaking that dates back to 1957. This mechanical marvel allows for the slender profile of the trapeze case while ensuring reliable timekeeping performance with a 40-hour power reserve.

Complementing the Swinging Sautoirs are Piaget's new Hidden Treasures cuff watches. The first standout piece features an audacious, partially hidden opal dial set within an asymmetrical white gold case measuring 38mm at its widest point. 

The texture of this extraordinary case draws inspiration from nature, with a wavy pattern that appears as if gently sculpted by wind and water over time. This organic texture is achieved through a combination of hand-engraving and delicate hammering techniques unique to Piaget's gold workshops, requiring over 40 hours of handwork by a master craftsman.

The white gold Polo 79 maintains the distinctive gadroon pattern that made the original instantly recognizable, with each of the 132 alternating polished and brushed horizontal lines requiring precise alignment during assembly. These gadroons are meticulously machined, then hand-finished to create the perfectly alternating matte and polished surfaces that create a dynamic play of light along the seamlessly integrated bracelet and case. The bracelet itself consists of 57 individually articulated links, each containing between 5-7 components, resulting in over 300 total components for the bracelet alone.

At the heart of the Polo 79 beats Piaget's in-house caliber 1200P ultra-thin automatic movement. Measuring just 2.35mm thick, this technical marvel features a 44-hour power reserve while allowing the watch to maintain its slender 7.6mm total thickness. The movement is visible through a sapphire caseback, revealing meticulous finishing including circular Côtes de Genève, beveled bridges, and a 22K gold micro-rotor engraved with the Piaget coat of arms.

The white gold Polo 79 follows the original design with baton hands and applied hour markers on a silver-toned dial with subtle vertical brushing that complements the horizontal lines of the case and bracelet. This exquisite timepiece demonstrates Piaget's commitment to creating watches that transcend traditional gender boundaries, offering the ultimate expression of sophisticated sports luxury suitable for all wrists.

First introduced in 1989, the Aura epitomized Piaget's mastery of integration—of shape and form, case and bracelet, jewelry, and watchmaking. The collection elevated the seamless fusion concept first explored with the Piaget Polo to new heights, featuring meticulous gem-setting that created the illusion of an uninterrupted surface of brilliance.

In 2025, Piaget reimagines this legacy with the extraordinary Rainbow Aura, a celebration of the Maison's signature mastery of color. This remarkable 36mm creation features a precisely calibrated spectrum of gemstones—629 diamonds (weighing approximately 16.7 carats) and 276 colored gemstones including sapphires, tsavorites, and spinels in a carefully orchestrated rainbow gradient. Each stone is meticulously selected for both color compatibility and precise dimensional consistency, with a tolerance of just 0.02mm to ensure a perfectly seamless transition between colors.

The Rainbow Aura's gemstone selection process alone takes over three months, with Piaget's master gemologists examining over 5,000 stones to find the perfect matches. The setting process then requires more than 230 hours of work by Piaget's master gem-setters, who employ a sophisticated invisible setting technique where the metal structure supporting the gems is completely concealed from view.

Despite its jeweled exterior, Piaget has incorporated its ultra-thin caliber 430P mechanical movement into the Aura. This 2.1mm-thick hand-wound movement provides 43 hours of power reserve while allowing the watch to maintain a svelte profile that hugs the wrist comfortably despite its dazzling presence. The Rainbow Aura transforms mechanical timekeeping into a luminous canvas for artistry, where every meticulously placed stone captures not just light but imagination.

The result is a timepiece that defies expectations: a seamless fusion of case and bracelet that virtually disappears beneath the touch while creating a mesmerizing visual display. Available in a numbered limited edition of just 8 pieces worldwide, the Rainbow Aura represents the pinnacle of Piaget's jewelry watchmaking expertise.
