Introduction to Miyavi
Miyavi — born Takamasa Ishihara — is one of Japan's most recognizable musical exports. The guitarist, singer, and actor built his reputation on a slap-style guitar technique that dispenses with a pick entirely, a method so distinctive it has become his calling card across two decades of recording and touring. Beyond music, he has appeared in major film productions including Unbroken (2014), directed by Angelina Jolie, and has served as a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador since 2014, using his platform to advocate for refugee rights. His career sits at an unusual intersection of underground rock credibility, mainstream pop reach, and genuine humanitarian work.
The Miyavi watch collection, as captured by photographers so far, centers on Piaget — a pairing that became official when he stepped into an ambassador role for the Swiss manufacture. The clearest sighting places him at a Piaget Polo S promotional event, wrist raised and sleeve rolled back to reveal the stainless steel model with a black dial. The Polo S is a sports-leaning piece built on an integrated bracelet design, water-resistant to 100 metres, and powered by Piaget's in-house 1110P automatic movement. Against Miyavi's heavily tattooed forearms, the steel and black combination reads as a deliberate aesthetic choice — a watch that sits comfortably in both stage and press-event contexts without requiring a suit to carry it.
Because the relationship between Miyavi and Piaget is an ambassador arrangement rather than a series of independent street-spotted purchases, the collection documented here is slim but meaningful. Ambassador sightings often offer better technical views of a watch than candid photos do, and that is true here — the Polo S details are unusually legible in the available images. Whether further pieces from Piaget's catalogue, or watches from other brands, surface in future sightings remains to be seen.
Miyavi Spotted Wearing Piaget Polo S in Stainless Steel with Black Dial
Inserted 31/05/2023
The Piaget Polo S revived one of Swiss luxury's great integrated-bracelet lineages when it launched in 2016, descending directly from the original 1979 Polo that defined power-dressing for a generation. At what appears to be a Piaget Polo S launch event, Japanese multi-hyphenate Miyavi — singer, guitarist, producer, and actor — shows the watch prominently on a heavily tattooed wrist, wearing it over the sleeve cuff with the black dial variant that mirrors his all-black aesthetic. The pairing is deliberately on-brand for both artist and watchmaker.
