May be I already told you but I particularly like the fact that the sub dials are not concentrated at the center of the dial. That helps this GP to "breathe" in my opinion

Good point, Alkiro, just overall, a very well designed dial and watch. [nt]

Unreal that it's 20 years old! Looks so fresh!! Both generally with respect to design and specifically with respect to the condition of this example. Nice catch & congrats!! [nt]

I like the warm patina of the indices on yours. A plus for me. [nt]

Lovely piece indeed.

Curious to know if the movement is an integrated chronograph or if it uses a module with the base GP3100 movement. Any details, thoughts or comments?

Thanks Mustang

By: crown comfort : July 1st, 2017-00:01

The movement is a modular design. Based on the inhouse 3100 automatic caliber with a Dubois-Depraz Chronograph module. Best, CC

Great modern looking chron!

Even if 20 years under the belt, this one still looks young and fresh! The tritium dial has gained a very nice patina! Best Blomman

I think the Laureato is an evergreem design, hence the success of the relaunch

Thanks.

Wrist shot?

Would you mind posting a wrist shot? Curious what the size of the watch is. Thanks!

Done so before :)
