Classy on the front, complex on the back: the White Dial Piaget Altiplano Replica Watch  might sound like the dress-watch equivalent of a mullet, but it’s actually the last word in hidden luxury. The dial is guilloched with delicate, overlapping circles, which look quite beautiful and give a constantly-changing interplay of light and dark.

The Piaget Altiplano Replica Watch is powered by the legendary 430P movement: ultra-thin (just 2.1 mm), ultra-famous, ultra-cool. It’s as pared-down as a dress watch movement should be, powering just central hours and minutes at a frequency of 21,600 vph. You get a power reserve of 43 hours: and if you buy a model with a sapphire caseback, you’ll also see the Cotes de Genève circling, blued screws, and circular graining on the bridges and plate.

If you’re the kind of person who likes to rock a slightly different look at the black-tie function, you’ll want to move away from the classic ‘gold case, brown leather strap’ formula. The Piaget Replica Watch provides the answer. Yes, it’s available in standard gold and brown colours: but for a rock-star look, you can opt for the slate-grey dial and platinum case of ref G0A40020.
