I got my Polo Date a few years back because literally every other watch was impossible to buy retail. I stumbled upon this watch and tried it on. It was very me is all I can say, it does come with a steep price tag but I’ve never gotten something so luxury for myself ever. Afterwards I did regret so much for not waiting longer and researching to potentially get a different watch. But every time I put this watch on it’s so simplistically beautiful and I love it. You really have to see the dial in reality and try it on.

Vintage Piaget from the 60's and 70's is still quite marvellous value - the ultra-thin movements are among the very best around, more robust often than some of the AP/VC ones, with some very fine finishing.

Polo S chrono version owner here. My 2 cents. The watch sits beautifully on the wrist with that brilliant blue dial with matching blue subdials creating a presence that’s not fully apparent in pics and videos. Very thin in classic Piaget style for a chronograph at just over 11 cm allowing it to be worn as a dress or sport watch in that vibe of other watches that you compare it with although definitely not a dress watch especially with 100 m water resistance. My main concern is that the bracelet has an almost imperceptible taper so it doesn’t wear as well as it should. Especially head scratching for a company that’s known for expensive jewelry as well as watches. Speaking of expensive, this watch can be had new or .slightly pre owned at well under list price. So definitely not in the hype zone. Its main competition is definitely GP, Chopard, IWC and Zenith, not Rolex sport watches which fills a different niche. Great review Teddy and thanks!

How is this an integrated sport watch? The bracelet is not part of the case nor does this watch require a proprietary strap the way integrated watches do. The mere fact that it is NOT integrated would be a reason for me to consider it.

Have both, but finissimo, and they wear completely different. The polo is more versatile, but the octo is a work of art, especially the movement. Octo is very undervalued, even though slightly more expensive, and so unique that you will still stare at it in 30 years. Go octo, imho

My one issue with this watch is for this price they should be giving you a gold rotor. Not a pvd coated one. You got a brand like piaget who for decades refused to do anything but precious metal watches even going so far as to return the nautilus to Genta saying it didnt align with their brand cause its a steel watch and not precious metal and then a few years later releasing a gold polo to compete in the luxury sports watch genre. Piaget's first attempt at steel sports watches wasnt until the the 2000's and it was a fail with the market. They tried again in the mid 2010's with the polo S and its a success as its still around and liked by many. They should have given a nod to their philosophy and done a gold rotor. You got brands like VC with their fifty six at the same price range with a gold rotor.

I think it is the overall design that makes it an integrated bracelet sportswatch. It has a big unique bezel. A three dimensional dial with a date display. It uses superluminova for hands and indexies. The bracelet has a butterfly clasp and was thougtfull picked for the design. What makes a integrated bracelet sportswatch its not that there is a unique system for the bracelet. But its the whole package and you dont need to check every box. Even the CEO of AP said that the royal oak is not really an integrated sports watch because the bracelet can be removed. I personally think that the cartier santos is also an integrated bracelt sports watch just like the Breitling chronomat. But i also can see that for you its just a standard watch.

I think the Polo is a really beautiful watch, and wears wonderfully on the wrist. That said, its price is too high for what you get. While the case is obviously inspired by the Nautilus (and compared to that it is a bargain), it's actually more similar to an Omega Aqua Terra, which costs half as much, and has better specs (and also nicer movement finishing, in my opinion). So apart from the Piaget brand, I don’t really see the luxury value...

Piaget great brand, but I still think it look too much as a aquanaut by Patek, just now their going back to their roots to doing the polo 79 I think it woul be cool if their made a similar but not identical of it in steel. Grabbing the shape of its case by example with a other dial so that it won’t look like Patek and that bracelet it’s ok but I think it needs a redesign

This watch is just straight up ugly, there is no sugar coating it. The worst looking integrated bracelet I have seen yet. And the movement is a big disappointment too, even though it's supposed to be in house, it looks like dressed up ETA with no interesting features. Just take look at anything at price point from for example Glashütte Original, and compare that beautiful movement finishing to this boredom. Waste of money that's for sure.
