This Piaget Tank Carré reference 9357 is a qualitative ultra-thin timepiece from the late 1970`s that reflects Piaget’s commitment to elegance and precision.

Founded in 1874 by Georges-Édouard Piaget in La Côte-aux-Fées, Switzerland, Piaget initially specialized in manufacturing high-precision movements. By the mid-20th century, the brand had expanded into creating refined wristwatches, becoming known for their ultra-thin luxurious designs.

This particular watch has an 18-karat yellow gold case with a Clous de Paris pattern, measuring 23 mm in width (excluding the original crown) and 30 mm in length, including the lugs.

The caseback is secured to the case via four solid gold screws. The sapphire crystal is in perfect condition and the case is in an overall very good condition, it shows only normal and light traces of use.

At the heart of this timepiece lies the Piaget caliber 9P2, an ultra-thin hand-wound mechanical movement introduced in 1960. Measuring just 2.15 mm in thickness, the 9P2 was an evolution of the original 9P movement, which debuted in 1957. The 9P2 operates at a frequency of 19,800 vibrations per hour and comprises 86 components, including 18 jewels, providing a power reserve of approximately 36 hours.

The movement’s ultra-thin profile was a remarkable achievement in watchmaking, contributing significantly to Piaget’s reputation for quality, so that movements of the 9P family were also used by other high-end manufactures like Cartier and Van Cleef.

The original Clous-de-Paris gold-tone dial is in an excellent condition, exhibiting no signs of aging, no time patina and no oxidations. Its understated design which matches the case`s complements the overall sophistication of the watch.

The timepiece is paired with a croco strap strap complete with its original solid gold clasp
