The Year of the Dragon has only just begun, but high-end stores are already filled with expensive items bearing the auspicious dragon symbol. One such dazzling piece is the new special edition Year of the Dragon timepiece from Piaget. It is currently displayed in a Piaget boutique in Hong Kong with a prohibitive price of $1.72 million. Called “Exceptional Piece”, this watch is much more than a clever instrument that tells time, it is a sophisticated jewel meant to make any lady shine like a gem.
