A new double record in the field of ultra-thin watches for Piaget with the Emperador Coussin Automatic Minute Repeater, which in its category reaches just 4.8 millimetres for the calibre and 9.4 for the case. One of the most difficult complications to achieve, the minute repeater, is incorporated in Piaget's new self-winding movement which, despite its subtlety, guarantees a pure and crystal-clear sound as well as great technical reliability. The sapphire dial showcases the calibre's beautiful and meticulously hand-finished finish.
