About Piaget Watches
Piaget, began in 1874 in the small farm town of Côte-aux-Fées, Switzerland. Founder Georges Edouard Piaget began the company by designing and manufacturing extremely precise clock movements and pocket watches. These high precision movements were sold to the most popular watch brands of the time, and quickly became known for being prestigious and quality. George’s son, Timothée, took leadership of the company in 1911, and decided to take the company in a new direction and expand the product line. In addition to producing movements, Piaget began manufacturing wrist watches. It wasn’t until 1943, when the company was taken over by the founder’s grandsons, that Piaget decided to register their brand and begin producing watches under the Piaget name. Piaget also began to expand internationally, developing worldwide brand recognition. The brand became so popular so quickly, that Piaget quickly needed to build a new production facility to accommodate the heavy orders.
