Piaget Polo Quartz Day-Date reference 15562 C 701

Partially verified

This Piaget Polo wristwatch, reference 15562 C 701, dates to the 1980s. Constructed from 18K yellow gold, the timepiece features a 31.5 mm circular case with an integrated bracelet. The dial and case display characteristic horizontal raised bars with alternating brushed and polished finishes. It is powered by a quartz movement with day and date complications, positioned at the top and bottom of the dial, respectively. The watch features a slightly domed sapphire crystal and an unsigned crown. This example is reported to have been acquired directly from the family of the first owner and is described as potentially unpolished, exhibiting a pinkish patina and minimal signs of wear. The integrated bracelet consists of 19 links and is reported to have no measurable stretch. A new battery was recently installed.

Object description

Case and Dial

The watch features a 31.5 mm circular case in 18K yellow gold, characterized by an integrated design where the case flows into the bracelet. A prominent design element is the series of horizontal raised bars that traverse both the dial and the bracelet, finished in alternating brushed and polished surfaces. The dial includes windows for the day of the week and the date.

The watch is topped with a slightly domed sapphire crystal. The crown is unsigned. The dial itself is described as original and free of significant damage or aging, accompanied by yellow gold hands.
