Piaget Grey Dial Beta 21 reference 14101 in 18k yellow gold

This is a very interesting and rare Beta 21 driven Piaget with a slight discolored dial; the watch turned from a soleil finished grey colour to a slight lilac hue!

The indexes are also very unusual, they are “flat” but still three dimensional, very cool!

Another strange and seldom seen feature is the way the hands assembled on the movement by means of a jewel!

It’s not only interesting on the outside however; the watch houses a Beta 21 movement. In the early 60s, a number of prominent brands collaborated on the development of what became known the Beta 21 movement at the Centre Electronique Horologer (CEH). By the end of the 1960s approximately 6000 Beta 21 movements had been made, each virtually identical (except a few minor modifications on a brand by brand basis) and they were put into production.

Patek used it in their Cercle d’Or, Omega in their Electroquartz pieces and Rolex in the 5100. This Piaget is fitted with a Bulangandsons strap and a 18k yellow gold Piaget buckle and has been fully checked by our watchmaker and a new battery fitted.
