Couple: Electronic Andy Warhol-Pair

Piaget Quartz: Beta21 (right) & later purple ladies watch (left) in a similar three-stepped cushion-shaped case. The bigger one being the more important icon, being powered by the significant first Swiss quartz-movement Beta21 -- historical, rare & special: it is not only very important and precise with its quartz beating 8`192 times each second, it further hums at 256Hz (hear & feel), it has a super-smooth sweep second (256 steps per second) and this model was one of Andy Warhols most beloved watches and Piaget, especially. The smaller ladies model comes lean and slim for comfortable wear in a eye-catching purple tone -- more feminine but not less attractive.

The beautiful couple-watches Andy Warhol would have gifted to his wife, if there would have been one.
