Piaget’s 2021 Altiplano Origin 35mm launch comprised three 18k-gold watches, priced at launch from CHF 18,100 to CHF 26,200. The entry model had a plain rose-gold bezel; the other two added a diamond-set bezel, with a choice of rose or white gold. These are historical launch prices, not confirmed current prices.

Automatic Piaget calibre 501P
The in-house automatic calibre 501P measures 20.5mm by 3.6mm and has 25 jewels. Monochrome gives its frequency as 21,600 vibrations per hour and its power reserve as 43 hours, and describes the movement as an evolution of Piaget’s 530P calibre. These are published specifications, not results of an independent performance test.
Monochrome also notes that the alligator straps use Piaget’s self-interchangeable system. Its report does not give replacement strap reference numbers, so confirm compatibility with Piaget before ordering a spare.

How the Origin fits the Altiplano line
Piaget traces the Altiplano collection’s ultra-thin identity to 1957 and identifies the 9P as a foundational movement on its Altiplano collection page. The 2021 Origin launch returned to a pared-back, two-hand dress-watch layout. The 501P’s stated thickness is a movement dimension; the watch itself is 8.1mm thick.
