Piaget recently unveiled the Altiplano Precious Skeleton Watch to the world via its socials. According to the brand’s official statement, the new watch is “the world’s thinnest diamond-set skeleton self-winding movement.”

The organization built its reputation from the ground up with high-quality watches, so this new watch definitely walks the walk, with a 3mm-thick skeletonish material.

Apart from the skeleton gold dial, which cuts through different sections in a stylish manner, the new Altiplano also stands out due to its shiny appearance. The front face is highlighted by a glimmer produced by stones on different elements.

Piaget also went all out with diamonds. Elements featured on the front and back of this timepiece—like the bezel, dial, ring, and inner gears—are completely covered by diamonds, which are perfectly fixed on the surface to reflect more light. While the watch comes with 393 diamonds, the caliber has the highest number of diamonds (293 stones), due to the expansive surface area.

And thanks to the sleek design, multiple components, such as gears and bridges, are quite visible from various angles, adding some character to the overall look. Well, there’s just something about skeleton dials that elevates a watch’s overall look to a whole new level.

In 2024, Bremont captured everyone’s attention with the stainless steel Terra Nova collection, field watches that had been inspired by military pocket watches from the early 20th century. Well, the brand reimagined those models, and the end result was the bronze collection. As the name hints, the new kid on the block is manufactured from high-quality bronze, so the front face looks quite different.

Just like the stainless steel collection, the latest bronze series is made up of three watches. Apart from the casing, everything that was featured on the previous models, from the dial design to the measurements, was passed down to these new bronze watches.
