The watches Piaget created for Van Cleef & Arpels illustrate a particularly compelling chapter in 20th‑century luxury watchmaking, where two complementary disciplines meet: Parisian high jewellery and Swiss haute horlogerie.
Originally, Piaget was more than just a watch brand—it was a renowned manufacturer of high-quality movements, supplying many prestigious houses. In this partnership, Piaget produced the movements (and often the cases), while Van Cleef & Arpels sometimes contributed the jewellery design, allowing the maison to further develop and enrich its watch catalogues.
