Piaget Ellipse 9822 Tiger Eye 1970s

Piaget Ellipse with Tiger Eye Dial — A Golden Icon from the 1970s

In the world of ultra-thin dress watches, few timepieces carry the charm and craftsmanship of a vintage Piaget Ellipse. This reference 9822, crafted in 18k yellow gold, houses the revolutionary 9P1 caliber, one of the slimmest hand-wound movements of its era — and a platform for Piaget’s pioneering use of hard stone dials.

The highlight here is the stunning Tiger Eye dial, untouched and beautifully preserved. With its warm golden-brown tones and silky, natural striations, it reflects light with a hypnotic glow unique to each piece.

Fitted with a red-brown leather strap and finished with the original 18k Piaget buckle, this Ellipse blends rich textures, technical finesse, and vintage glamour in a compact and elegant silhouette.
