Surrounded by his family and guided by his strong entrepreneurial mindset, Georges-Edouard Piaget decided, in 1874, to create a watchmaking workshop in La Côte-aux-Fées, a small village in the middle of the Swiss mountains of the Jura.
Since that day, Piaget has pushed the limits to “do what has never been done before” and crafts sophisticated and flamboyant watches and jewellery creations.
Within the walls of our Ateliers de l’Extraordinaire, our master artisans continue to harness rare skills that have been preserved and perfected from generation to generation.
Today, Piaget’s exceptional craftsmanship is celebrated worldwide, supported by a strong global presence and a dedicated network of client support and retail colleagues who bring the spirit of our Maison to life every day.
