The reference 7661 and 761 are one of the standout variations, often crafted in contrasting precious metals like 18k white and yellow gold and featuring Piaget’s ultra-thin mechanical movements, a hallmark of the brand’s expertise. This model is recognized for its distinctive horizontal gadroon pattern across both the case and bracelet, creating a seamless and fluid aesthetic. Piaget, known for its ultra-thin movements, often equipped the Polo 7661 with either an automatic or quartz movement, maintaining its sleek profile and elegant silhouette by moving the setting crown to the back of the case back. The watch exudes timeless luxury, making it a favorite among collectors who appreciate vintage Piaget models for their craftsmanship, unique design, and association with the glamorous jet-set era of the 1970’s and 80s.
