Piaget Polo FortyFive Chronograph



The Piaget Polo FortyFive Chronograph is made of titanium, a first for the brand. It reinterprets the original aesthetic in a case that is watertight to 100 metres, extended by a strap made of injection moulded rubber, and expanded to a diameter of 45 mm – a size both in tune with our times and reminiscent of the average length of a polo match. The case has been given a new curve that ensures a good fit to the wrist. The sapphire case-back reveals the 880P movement, designed and developed entirely in-house. In addition to its chronograph and flyback functions, this calibre displays the hour and minutes functions, along with small seconds at 6 o’clock, the date at 12 o’clock and a second 24 hour time zone at 9 o’clock. This 5.6 mm thick self-winding mechanical movement has two barrels and a large screw balance, and offers a 50 hour power reserve when the chronograph mode is engaged.
