Inherited Gadroon Decoration
If the artistry of "Extraleganza"—a fusion of flamboyance and elegance that perfectly defines Piaget's bold style—is revealed in the finest details, then the gadroon is its epitome. This decoration is not merely a striped pattern; it adorns Piaget watches with an atmosphere of unique refinement. The sensational materials, and above all, the delicate play of relief, emphasize the form of each Piaget Polo and enhance its beauty. From 1979 to 2026, the gadroon decoration has taken center stage on the Piaget Polo 79, and inspired by this, it also appears on the redesigned classic Piaget Polo Date.

The Core of Stone
In the 1970s, while sporty-chic steel watches were appearing one after another, Piaget made its mark in history with the Piaget Polo, announced in 1979, drawing attention for its original style and model name (a first for the Maison). Cast entirely in gold, this watch defied the general style codes of the time and quickly established its status as an avant-garde icon. Yves Piaget, who was passionate about horseback riding, fused his love for polo and high society into a watch that symbolized the glamour of the 1980s. This watch was worn effortlessly everywhere, from the clubs of Palm Beach to Chez Régine in New York. Yves Piaget liked to say, "The philosophy of the Piaget Polo can be expressed in one sentence: it is the bracelet that characterizes the watch, not the watch that characterizes the bracelet." The hundreds of grams of gold, its distinctive design, and its elegance captivated the people and jet-setters of the time, from Ursula Andress to Andy Warhol.
The highly versatile Piaget Polo 79 has spawned various iterations over time, and this season it returns in a two-tone version, also 38mm, equipped with the 1200P1 ultra-thin self-winding manufacture movement. Following the success of the Piaget Polo 79, which appeared in yellow gold, white gold, and two new varieties of gold, the Piaget Polo 79 is now adorned with another of the Maison's symbols: ornamental stones. Previously, onyx and lapis lazuli were used, but today, for the first time, ornamental stones join the contemporary lineup in a precious sodalite version. The contrasting mineral dial highlights the unique gadroon decoration that Piaget cherishes so dearly.

A Sublime Duo
In 2024, Maison Piaget celebrated its 150th anniversary. This was also the perfect opportunity to revive a tradition cherished by Yves Piaget himself: endlessly versatile couple watches, designed as the exact same piece for him and for her. Two years later, this iconic approach continues with captivating new editions that replicate the signature gadroon decoration of the Piaget Polo 79, further upgrading the Piaget Polo collection watches conceived for everyday use. Combining the radiant gadroon decoration that brought fame to the historical Piaget Polo with the sporty-chic appearance of the Piaget Polo Date, this duo is further elevated by silver-colored dials that symbolize the timeless elegance of the Maison. With interchangeable rubber straps (available in beige for the 36mm version adorned with 96 brilliant-cut diamonds, and khaki green for the 42mm version), and in a nod to the codes of the 1979 Piaget Polo, this piece is firmly rooted in the modern era while perfectly adhering to the style codes that have shaped Piaget's identity over the decades.
