In 2012, on the occasion of the Lunar New Year, Piaget welcomed the year of the dragon with a special capsule collection of exceptional timepieces. As the 12-year cycle begins again, that spirit of daring creativity, remarkable sophistication, and unexpected beauty is awakened once more for a special Lunar New Year capsule collection dedicated to the Dragon & Phoenix magnetic energies.
A symbol of power, strength, and prosperity, the Dragon is among the most celebrated and emblematic Chinese zodiac symbols. No wonder that for Piaget’s 2012 commemorative Lunar New Year collection, the Maison created 24 references that included four high watchmaking complications, eight Metiers d’Art timepieces, and two High Jewellery secret watches.

Piaget now marks the start of another 12-year cycle with a spectacular new capsule collection that, again, pays tribute to the Dragon and Phoenix, a Chinese symbol of masculinity and femininity, strength and power, hope and rebirth, and ultimate harmony and balance.
Featuring 10 daring designs of exceptional watches and High Jewellery pieces that top off with a pair of extravagant and very exclusive, made-to-order High Jewellery cuff watches, each creation brims with emotion and exuberance, joyfully channelling the codes of the Maison while celebrating unparalleled Metiers d’Art and watchmaking savoir-faire.
Altiplano Dragon Zodiac Watch
In 38mm Altiplano Zodiac references, the Dragon, a symbol of strength, power, and prosperity, takes centre stage and is exquisitely enamelled with cloisonné by Anita Porchet. Gold engraving gives depth and complexity to the red, pink, and orange-hued depictions of the blue Dragon and the Phoenix. Each of these 38-piece limited edition timepieces is a perfect contemporary interpretation of the Lunar New Year.

Limited to eight numbered editions, the 41mm Altiplano High Jewellery Dragon watch has exquisite paillonné enamel work that accentuates a gold-engraved dragon with red lacquered eyes.

Phoenix High Jewellery Watch
