A couple of Girard-Perregaux Damier's on the ...

Friends,


Its hip to be square!

wink


What would summer vacation be without a pair of Girard-Perregaux Damier's?!




Similar but not the same... One manual, one automatic...




One without seconds hand and date, one with central seconds and date window...




Both, equally square!

wink



Best

What a pair my friend ! You are right equally square but not identical at all

Both really nice, I would also vote for the no date version but any of the two would make my day 😉 Wear them in good health my friend, Mike

The connoisseur's choice! :) [nt]

I clearly have a preference for the left one (same as Mr Green). No date, no second hand and, something very significant for me... a decentralised "Girard Perregaux" writing.

Just this subtle element makes a big part of the interest of this timepiece for me. Best wishes Alkiro

Indeed a very nice detail!

But I must say that the logo placement on the date version is also good. Gives the dial harmony. Best Blomman

Very cool pair, my friend

on the side-by-side it really shows how the different lugs transform the look.

Yes, the lugs...

Very different! One long and thin, one short and sturdy! Best Blomman

Hippest pair!!

Great I love wooden beam again Yours D

Yes, the manual to the left.

One thing I love with this one is the "simple" dial combined with the curved case and angled lugs. At first glace it might look quite clean almost boring, but if you look closer you see the complexity that has come together in perfect harmony! Best Blomma... 

Very very nice the pair

esp like the non date dial, but the shorter & wider lugs of the date dial case are funkier - seems there's yet another GP to add to the ever growing list. All the best Giles

Yes, the Damier is a must for GP fans! ;)

The non date is more classic, while the date is bigger in volume and as you say... Funkier! Best Blomman
