Today’s obsession? The kind of wrist candy that makes even the most seasoned collectors blink twice. Piaget has dropped a masterpiece, the Andy Warhol Watch ‘Collage’ Limited Edition, and trust us, it’s not just a watch… it’s a full-blown cultural mic drop.
Why are we calling it a must-have?
Because it ticks all the boxes Jessica loves: fashion, art, glamour, storytelling, legacy, and a sprinkle of delicious eccentricity. This is the kind of piece you wear once and spend the rest of the night explaining to people who didn’t get the memo.
THE ICON RETURNS, WITH A POP TWIST
Last November, Piaget and The Andy Warhol Foundation rekindled an era by officially giving the legendary cushion-shaped watch its rightful name: The Andy Warhol Watch. This year, they’re turning up the dial, literally, with a 50-piece limited edition inspired by Warhol’s iconic “Collage” artwork.
Think of it as Warhol’s creativity, distilled, reimagined, and wrapped around your wrist.
For more than 150 years, Piaget has been flirting with the art world, crafting watches and jewellery that speak to the creative elite. The Maison has long been a favorite of artists who appreciate both precision and poetry, none more passionately than Andy Warhol himself. The king of Pop Art bought seven Piaget watches in his time, including the now-iconic 1973 cushion-shaped reference 15102.
It was bold then, and it’s even bolder now.
FROM WARHOL’S WRIST TO YOURS
Warhol didn’t just love watches, he hoarded them. By the time he passed in 1987, he’d collected over 300 pieces, seven of which were Piaget. Those watches later crossed the Sotheby’s auction block before four of them returned to Switzerland and back into Piaget’s private vault.
Among them? The black-and-gold stunner that inspired today’s revival.
Fast-forward to now: Piaget channels that same irreverent energy into the Collage Limited Edition, whose dial features a gemstone marqueterie, a kaleidoscope of color echoing Warhol’s 1986 polaroid collage self-portraits. It’s unconventional, electric, and unmistakably Warhol.
Wrapped in 18-carat yellow gold, a direct nod to Warhol’s 1973 watch and a metal not available in the current Andy Warhol Watch collection, this 45mm piece is exclusive to the max. Just 50 exist.
Fifty. Five-zero. That’s it.
THE CREATIVE, WITTY & CATCHIER VERSION OF YOUR TEXT
Piaget and the Andy Warhol Foundation didn’t just collaborate, they resurrected an icon and gave it a technicolor jolt. After re-naming the famous cushion-shaped classic last year, the duo drops a new 50-piece capsule inspired by Warhol’s “Collage,” proving that Pop Art still belongs on your mood board and your wrist.
Piaget, with 150+ years of crafting jewelry for the creatively inclined, has always attracted the art world’s boldest. Andy Warhol, collector of everything from soup cans to Swiss watches, famously owned seven Piagets. But the crown jewel? The reference 15102 he snapped up in 1973. Big, gold, unapologetic. The kind of watch that doesn’t whisper luxury, it stages a full exhibition.
Decades later, after Sotheby’s auctioned off his 300-watch collection, Piaget bought back four, including the black-and-gold 15102 that would fuel today’s revival.
Now, the Maison channels Warhol’s spirit into the Andy Warhol Watch ‘Collage’ Limited Edition: a riot of colorful gemstone marqueterie inspired by his 1986 polaroid collages, framed by an 18-carat yellow gold case. It’s flashy, it’s artistic, it’s heritage with attitude. And with only 50 pieces in existence, it’s basically wearable pop culture.
