Throughout its history, Manufacture de Haute Horlogerie Piaget has constantly pursued its groundbreaking work in the highly technical field of ultra-thin movements. Of a total of 29 movements developed by Piaget, the new Calibre 1270P is the 17th ultra-thin mechanism.
This expertise in ultra-thin watchmaking has also given rise to complicated calibers, including the 600P shaped tourbillon, 880P chronograph, and 855P perpetual calendar.

In 2010, Piaget celebrated the 50th Anniversary of the launch of the legendary Calibre 12P by presenting Calibres 1200P (hours and minutes) and 1208P (hours, minutes and small seconds), the thinnest mechanical self-winding movements on the market at just 2.35mm thick – a record. These movements were integrated within the new 43mm Altiplano case and thereby set a second record for the thinnest watch in its category (5.25mm).

Drawing upon both Piaget Calibre 600P – the world’s thinnest hand-wound tourbillon movement – and Piaget Calibre 1208P – the world’s thinnest self-winding movement equipped with a micro-rotor, the Calibre 1270P ultra-thin self-winding tourbillon measures a mere 5.35mm thick while offering a combination of technical and aesthetic innovations.

The Piaget Emperador Coussin Tourbillon Automatic Ultra-Thin watch features the slimmest profile on the market, with a case measuring just 10.4 mm thick.

Unlike the movements in most shaped watches, Calibre 1270P is cushion-shaped like the case it rests in, adding a high degree of horological legitimacy. The movement itself is a wonder of design and execution. Some gear wheels are a mere 0.12mm thick. The placement of the micro-rotor on the dial side of the movement and the offset hour and minute hands are striking and noteworthy aesthetic elements.

The dial features laser guilloché work while tapered hour-markers point toward the offset hands and the gold-rimmed oscillating weight and tourbillon displays. The modern overall tone is counter-balanced by the traditional Haute Horlogerie decoration of the micro-rotor, guilloché-worked and adorned with the Piaget coat-of-arms.
