What country is a Piaget watch from?
1 Answer

What country a Piaget watch is from is Switzerland. In 1874, at age 19, Georges-Édouard Piaget began manufacturing handmade timepiece components and movements in a workshop on his family farm in La Côte-aux-Fées, Switzerland. The company expanded into luxury wristwatches and pocket watches under the direction of Georges-Édouard's son, Timothée Piaget. Later, Timothée's sons, Gérald and Valentin Piaget, would lead a team of talented craftspeople into a new era of innovation for the brand in both watches and luxury jewelry. The Piaget family name was trademarked in 1943, and a large manufacturing facility was established in La Côte-aux-Fées. There, they would perfect one of their signatures: ultra-thin movements. In 1959, the Salon Piaget was opened in Geneva, where Piaget also set up workshops for goldsmithing and gem setting, introducing the company's inaugural jewelry creations and establishing a creative hub where artisans were encouraged to push the boundaries of their designs. Today, Geneva serves as the brand's official headquarters. On 1stDibs, find a wide range of Piaget watches.
