Piaget Tank ref.937 Squared Hobnail with provenance from 1970s

This exquisite square watch, adorned with a hobnail finish on the case and a black lacquered dial, boasts a caseback engraving that tells a tale steeped in history. The watch was presented by Gustavo Díaz Ordaz Bolaños, a distinguished Mexican lawyer and statesman who held the office of President of Mexico from December 1, 1964, to November 30, 1970. In a gesture of profound respect and admiration, Díaz Ordaz bestowed this remarkable Piaget timepiece upon Roberto Treviño Garza in September 1970, just months before concluding his presidential tenure. The engraving, rendered with impeccable hand-crafted calligraphy, not only commemorates a significant political alliance but also captures a moment of historical import. This watch stands as a testament to the legacy of a pivotal era in Mexican history.
