Luxury Swiss watch maker, Piaget, was the proud sponsor of this week’s match.

Crafted from titanium with stainless steel accents and offered on an injection-molded rubber strap, the newest Piaget has bold, sporty look and is already a hit with polo players and fans of the game around the world.

Polo Ralph Lauren will return this summer as the exclusive apparel retailer with an onsite shop at the Bridgehampton Polo matches.
