Confident in form and unmistakably Piaget, this yellow gold baguette diamond and ruby cover watch reflects the maison at a moment of complete creative fluency. Produced during the late 1960s and 1970s, it belongs to an era when Piaget reimagined the wristwatch as a decorative object. A creation to be worn, admired, and discovered rather than merely read at a glance.
The cover watch is a natural expression of this design philosophy. Concealing the dial beneath a hinged, gem-set facade, it privileges surface, material, and gesture. Baguette diamonds and rubies are arranged with architectural precision, not excess, creating a composition that is deliberate and controlled. Beneath the cover, Piagets ultra-thin movement allowed the watch to maintain its elegant profile, reinforcing the maisons technical leadership in the period.
Historically, references like the 15218 illustrate Piagets ability to merge high jewelry with serious watchmaking without compromise. These watches were not statements of status, but of taste, and were favored by clients who understood that luxury could be both expressive and restrained.
Preserved in excellent overall condition with no notable signs of wear, this example remains sharply defined, its stones and surfaces retaining their original clarity. It is a timepiece that captures Piaget at its most assured.
