PIAGET – Protocole XXL


There’s a fine line between sophistication and over-the-top glitz, but Piaget seems to get it right every time. The Protocole piaget_protocole-xxlXXL, for instance, is a gem-encrusted whopper measuring 42 x 46mm, yet no one can deny its timeless allure.

Dressed to the nines, the lugs extend and wrap around the case like a pair of parentheses framing a statement, while a shimmery mother- of-pearl dial forms an elegant backdrop to the elongated Roman numerals that emphasize the lines of the case.

Animating the watch is a new generation Calibre 830P, a whisper-thin hand-wound movement measuring 2.5mm in height. The large case accommodates the movement’s larger balance and barrel that provides a 65-hour power reserve.
