Piaget the Gouverneur Collection

The new Gouverneur line by Piaget features a fine selection of watches distinguished by their elegant shape, balanced between round and oval. If you look at the photos featured in this article, you’ll surely notice that each of the models highlights an oval shape nested in a round one, and then a round one nested in the oval. The cases are round, but the openings of the dials are oval, which gives a distinctively formal and elegant character to the creation, symbolizing the perfection in balanced and well-structured shapes.

The Gouverneur Collection brings three new mechanical models: automatic, chronograph and tourbillon, available in diamond-set pink or white gold variations. Each of the models in this exclusive new range is fitted with leather straps and featured in 43 mm-diameter cases. With this line, the brand also introduces two new ultra-thin calibres.


Piaget The Gouverneur Automatic Calendar

The Gouverneur Automatic Calendar is fitted with a Calibre 800P, fitted with two barrels to provide generous 85 hours of power reserve. Along with basic indications, this watch offers a date display at 6 o’clock.


Piaget The Gouverneur Chronographe

The Gouverneur Chronographe utilizes Piaget’s new 882P ultra-thin mechanical flyback self-winding chronograph movement. The watch is designed in the spirit of the vintage chronographs, featuring two separate counters on the dial. There are sweep seconds hand and a minute counter at 3 o’clock, a 24-hour dual time-zone indicator at 9 o’clock, and a date indication in the lower portion of the dial. The movement is finished in the spirit of haute horlogerie and it offers about 50 hours of power reserve.



Piaget The Gouverneur Tourbillon

The Gouverneur Tourbillon utilizes Piaget Manufacture 642P ultra-thin mechanical hand-wound moon phase tourbillon movement. The movement is extra thin, having only 2.8 mm in height, and weighing only 0.2 grams. The watch also features an astronomical pointer-type moon-phase indicator at 6 o’clock, necessitating a one-day correction only once every 122 years. This watch offers 40 hours of power reserve.
