PiagetThis Piaget Polo Relative Tourbillon, numbered 00, is an 18K white gold wristwatch produced circa 2006. It features a distinct two-body case construction with a polished and brushed finish, hooded lugs, and a nudged bezel, measuring 43 mm in diameter and 10 mm in thickness.

The silver guilloché dial displays applied white gold radial Arabic numerals and indexes, alongside a central disc indicating hours via a black arrow.
The case back is secured by four screws. The timepiece is accompanied by its fitted box, certificate, and instruction booklet, and features an original 18K white gold deployant buckle.

The mainspring barrel is positioned at the center, underneath the rotating movement assembly. The caliber contains 27 jewels and includes a shock absorber system.
