NEWS WATCHES

Does The Watch Industry Ignore Women? Yes And No.
I've been reading a lot lately about how women are not being well-served by the watch industry. A part of me agrees with this, and another part of me strongly disagrees.On the one hand, if the women’s watches launched in the past few years-or even just last week at Watches and Wonders-are any indication, then I'd say we are being well-served, indeed. In fact, in the 30 years I have been covering watches, I have never seen a better selection of women’s models. They have never been more interesting from either a technical or a design point of view. There is lots to covet and lots to write about.
The Making Of Piaget Watches
Up in the mountains of Switzerland watch movements are made. Down in the city of Geneva watches are borne. The contrast between the people who make the inside of watches and the outside of them is a benefit to the industry. You want watchmakers to be focused, hard workers who dedicate their lives to building high performance mechanical machines. On the other hand you want designers to be more cosmopolitan souls with an eye on culture and art.At Piaget this is pretty much the way it is – and for the better. Piaget is an often misunderstood watch brand because of their status as a high-end jewelry maker and connection to elite socialites. It is true, Piaget offers some of the most impressive high-jewelry undertakings of any brand. They also operate an almost full-time custom shop for clients interested in all manners of unique jewelry and watches that will only be owned by them.
