The Piaget Polo 79 Two-Tone Is For Modern Day Mob Wives & Stealth Wealth Kings

Theo Rosen — Fri, 30 Jan 2026 11:04:41 +0000

Two-tone watches often get a bad rap. So do all yellow gold watches. Both are inextricably associated with the excess of the 1980s; the former often derided as ‘cheap’ due to its predominant stainless steel construction, while the latter is shrugged off as ostentatious. Fortunately, Piaget’s latest manages to circumvent both criticisms by creating a two-tone watch that looks a touch more understated than full yellow gold, while leaving stainless steel out of the equation altogether. The Piaget Polo 79 […]

Imbuing horology with a jewellery-like aesthetic, stone dial watches are something to behold. A relatively new addition to the watch world, stone dial watches are held in high esteem for not only their use of semi-precious materials but for the craftsmanship that goes into them. That, and the fact that colourful rocks are pretty. Using stones with intriguing patterns like malachite, tiger’s eye, and agate as well as monolithic varieties like opal, onyx, and mother-of-pearl, many manufactures crafting stone dial […]

The Best Luxury Watches For Women With Small (& Tiny) Wrists

Tanisha Angel — Fri, 11 Apr 2025 14:39:52 +0000

There is no shortage of articles on the best watches for small wrists. However, the initial hit of excitement at seeing a story on recommendations for good small watches is invariably followed by a wave of disappointment upon realising the article in question considers a 6.5” wrist ‘small’ and said recommended ‘small’ watches are sized from 36 to 39mm. As someone with a 5.12” (13cm) wrist, even a 36mm case can have lug overhang, rendering the majority of these supposedly […]

Shh! These Are The 11 Best Quiet Luxury Watches In 2026

The old money aesthetic has dominated the collective consciousness of the style cognoscenti of late, with influencers, celebrities, and brands alike rather loudly touting the best recipe for ‘quiet luxury’. The trend towards quiet luxury proved a sartorial sigh of relief from the endless logomania that defined the previous decade, however ostentation isn’t limited to our wardrobes; it’s also present on our wrists. While there’s no shame in wearing a watch that appeals to — and is recognised by — […]

No Bones About It; These Are The Best Skeletonised Watches In 2026

Tanisha Angel — Fri, 10 Jan 2025 09:49:02 +0000

Historically, watches have always left a little something to the imagination. Namely, the mechanisms powering them. While exhibition casebacks allow wearers to view the movement from behind, the dial conceals the majority of the magic. Skeletonised, or open-worked, watches put the mechanical complexity behind a timepiece on full display, with the dial serving as a window into the gears, wheels, and bridges that make a watch tick. The best skeleton watches don’t merely slap a sapphire crystal onto the dial […]

Theo Rosen — Tue, 06 Feb 2024 05:11:57 +0000

Piaget is going back to its roots with the launch of the Polo 79. While the words ‘Piaget Polo’ are likely to conjure up visions of the manufacture’s flagship sports watch offering, the latest release harkens back to the original Polo released in 1979. The original Piaget Polo came at the end of the decade that saw the release of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, Patek Philippe Nautilus, and Vacheron Constantin 222. As a manufacture inextricably associated with dress watches […]

Green is the new blue for Piaget. The Swiss luxury watchmaker and jeweller has turned to nature for inspiration, dressing the Piaget Polo Date and the Piaget Polo Skeleton models in forestial green, inspired by the greenery surrounding the Piaget Manufacture in La Côte-aux-Fées.
