Simple Pleasure
Sometimes less is more…especially when it comes from the masters at Piaget, and includes a dazzling surprise. The Limelight Dancing Light women’s watch boasts just the right amount of embellishment with pink or white gold and brilliant-cut diamonds.

“When we are doing what we love, we don’t care about time. For at least at that moment, time doesn’t exist and we are truly free.”
— Marcia Wieder
Buying Time

Cosmonaut Sergei Andeyev is a real-life time-traveler. He orbited the planet in the Mir Space Station so quickly that, thanks to relativity, he actually experienced .02 seconds less time than those on Earth.
