According to the Archives of Piaget, the present watch was delivered in 1969 to USA
From 1969, under the direction of Valentin Piaget, the company saw an unrestrained explosion of creativity. The designs created were resolutely avant-garde, breaking technical boundaries with dramatic uncompromising pieces carved out of solid gold and set with bold coloured stones. These “haute couture” pieces were totally in-tune with the wider world of fashion. When they were unveiled at the Basel Fair, the Journal de Genève of 15th April 1970 commented: “this year, Piaget has indulged its taste for colour by going for dials in precious stone, carved out of solid jade, lapis lazuli, opal, coral, turquoise and tiger’s eye. And this innovation, remember, is itself a creation of the House of Piaget”.
