About the Item

Stone and craftsmanship, working together This Piaget from the 1970s is built around two things Piaget executed exceptionally well during this era: high-quality hard stone dials and thoughtful, jewelry-forward design. The lapis lazuli dial here is especially strong, with rich color and fine natural detail that immediately sets the tone for the watch. What makes this example more distinctive is the Wempe-designed bracelet an elegant construction that frames the alligator strap with gold elements, giving the piece a finished, integrated feel rather than reading as a simple strap watch. Why this configuration stands out The lapis dial is the focal point. Evenly colored, well detailed, and free from cracks or disruption, it’s exactly what collectors look for in Piaget stone work. The stone’s depth pairs naturally with the warm tone of the 18k yellow gold case, creating contrast without excess. The Wempe bracelet design is equally important. The gold-surrounded alligator strap elevates the watch beyond a standard strap configuration, reinforcing the jewelry aspect Piaget leaned into during the 1970s. It’s a subtle but meaningful detail that makes the watch feel complete and intentional. Condition, clearly stated Condition is excellent. The lapis dial is in beautiful, clean shape, the case presents well, and the crystal is clear. The bracelet and strap are tight, with only light wear consistent with age. All elements come together cleanly without distraction. The quartz movement is fully functional, keeping the profile slim and the wearing experience effortless. A refined Piaget with real detail This is the kind of Piaget that rewards a closer look. The quality of the lapis stone and the thoughtfulness of the Wempe bracelet design give it depth beyond first glance. For someone who appreciates Piaget’s stone-dial legacy and European retail craftsmanship, this Ref. 9861 offers elegance, material richness, and quiet distinction in one cohesive piece.
