Dancer
The elegant Dancer watch, with its ultra-thin case, discreetly gem-set bezel, extremely supple bracelet and characteristic double gadroons, lends its dial to a range that features the 12 Chinese signs of the zodiac. Illuminated by diamonds, the Snake symbol stands out beautifully against the black onyx background. The Snake is said to learn from the past while advancing in a wise and prudent manner.
Dancer watch, large model. Case in 18 carat white gold set with diamonds. Sapphire crystal case-back. Onyx dial featuring a diamond-set Chinese sign of the zodiac (the Snake). Ultra-thin, Piaget Manufacture, 430P, mechanical movement measuring 2.1 mm thick.
The gold bracelet consists of 80 separate elements, which have been polished or satin-brushed and assembled by hand in a process that lasts over two hours. The diamonds are set by hand according to a traditional technique, in which four 'grains' are drawn from gold and used to hold each stone in place. Onyx, a hard stone that is emblematic of Piaget creations, is used to highlight the motif, whose fabrication demanded extreme dexterity from our gem-setters.
