In 1979, Piaget unveiled the Polo model, the company's first elegant sports watch, a timepiece that would define the spirit and elegance of the 1980s. 45 years after its first appearance, for the 150th anniversary of the brand, this historic and iconic timepiece has been reborn as the Piaget Polo '79. The model has been awarded with the Iconic Watch Prize 2024 at the G.P.H.G.
Produced in the 80's, the original Polo quartz model presented here has been entirely overhauled by the Manufacture recently and benefits from a 2-year service warranty. Preserved in excellent overall condition, this watch is per sure a great addition to any collection and very fine icon of Swiss watchmaking heritage. CONDITIONS AND INFORMATION FOR BUYERS
