I have to change my mind.....

ovais1,

Thanks for the photo report.

When Piaget launched this Polo FortyFive Chronograph, I was a little sceptical.  My two concerns were:

1) Can Piaget bridge between their tradition and modernity?

2) Is titanium a precious metal; as their mantra before was "Piaget watch will always be proposed in precious metal".

Of course, this was after they stopped the production of the 'precious steel' Upstream model.

I cannot answer question 2 but they tell me that it is an expensive material  smile

Since the launch and with your photo report as well as others', I have to change my mind; Piaget can bridge between tradition and modernity.  They did it before with the original Piaget Polo 30 years ago and also with the Upstream. 

Who knows what PIAGET will bring in 2011 to bridge into the future.......?

 

Regards,

MTF

The elegant and sporty Piaget Polo FortyFive Chronograph is a perfect match for your Ferrari! I'm sure your Piaget was a less common choice, which is also nice. I often enjoy wearing a watch that not everyone else is sporting. Cheers, Daos

looks great!

Definitely an unusual watch choice at a Ferrari event...

the few Ferrari events I've been to usually you see people wearing lots of Rolex (Daytonas, Submariners, Day Dates), maybe a few Cartier on women, a few Girrard Perragaux Ferrari Chronographs, and possibly a Patek here or there. Your Polo 45 looks great w...
