The Altiplano 38mm in rose gold features a case and buckle crafted from 18k 5N rose gold, finished with alternating polished and satin-brushed surfaces. This G0A39110 reference utilizes a traditional construction with a slim profile measuring under 7mm in height. The dial is a fully skeletonized configuration, revealing the movement’s architecture. The black alligator strap is hand-stitched and secured with a gold ardillon buckle. The overall aesthetic is classic and enduring, drawing directly from Piaget’s heritage-rich design codes for dress watches, prioritizing legibility and proportion within a timeless round case.
Powering this watch is the Piaget caliber 838P, a manually-wound mechanical movement that is just 2.5mm thick. This ultra-thin skeleton movement is decorated with traditional techniques, including circular Côtes de Genève on the bridges, a circular-grained mainplate, and beveled edges on all components. The complication is a small seconds display located at 10 o’clock. The movement operates at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour and offers a power reserve of approximately 65 hours. The entire mechanism is visible from both the front and through the sapphire case back, showcasing the high level of finishing consistent with Piaget’s manufacture capabilities.
This specific timepiece is in mint condition and is unworn, presenting as new. It is accompanied by its official Piaget warranty card and presentation box. The Altiplano collection represents a core pillar of Piaget’s identity, and this skeletonized version in rose gold is a significant model within that lineage. Its combination of an ultra-thin profile with a fully openworked dial makes it a technically notable piece. In the current market, well-preserved examples of complicated Altiplano models with full documentation maintain strong collectibility. This reference is positioned for a collector who values traditional haute horlogerie finishing in a classic, understated dress watch format.
