ALTIPLANO ULTIMATE CONCEPT TOURBILLON
150TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION

To mark this special anniversary, Maison Piaget has performed an outstanding feat, a first in watchmaking history. 150 years after the Maison was first founded, 67 years after it invented its first ultra-thin calibre - the 9P - and 6 years after it revealed the thinnest watch in the world, the Altiplano Ultimate Concept, in 2018, Piaget has once again pushed the boundaries of horological ingenuity.

The Altiplano Ultimate Concept Tourbillon is a paradox in and of itself. And yet, its dimensions, which truly stretch the limits of watchmaking feasibility, are a visual statement that can only begin to outline 150 years of human and horological history. With a diameter of 41.5 mm, a guaranteed water resistance to a depth of 20 metres and a blue PVD-treated cobalt alloy case, the Altiplano Ultimate Concept Tourbillon appears to possess all the features of an everyday watch. However, its 2 mm thickness and its annular tourbillon take it to a different plane: that of the extraordinary.

The position of the watch components was maintained. The dial displaying the hours and minutes is still slightly off-centre, as it was on its predecessor. The tourbillon is located at 10 o’clock, with a seconds indicator engraved on the tourbillon ring. The most crucial constraint of all was thinness: a prerequisite, unchangeable and fundamental. All its parts had to fit within 2 mm. Working with the same diameter, the same case height and components just as thin, the difficulty lay in how to insert a tourbillon when the space inside the watch was already full.
