7. Piaget
It was in La Côte-aux-Fées, a small village in the Swiss part of the Jura, where Georges Édouard Piaget sketched the picture of what, decades later, was to become an inimitable signature in the world of luxury and fine watchmaking.
His family expanded their business to include fine jewelry epitomizing Old World glamour, which is still central to the Piaget vision.
Most of the brand’s pieces are reminiscent of Old Hollywood sophistication. The rose has become Piaget’s signature design, being part of hundreds of delicate or bold pieces.
The brand offers some of the world’s most openwork dials and watch faces that can be worn at different angles on their bands.
The brand’s jewelry is worn by celebrities like Jessica Chastain or Scarlett Johansson.
