Friends,

 

We all know it is an impossible task to keep up with CC!

But once in a while you are able to catch up a bit…

 

One of my latest catching up is this Girard-Perregaux Gyromatic reference 7850 ”FireStone” from the 1960s:

 


 

Another example of the “creative and playful” side of GP!

So cool. And yes, SS is more attractive than the gold. Good one, my friend.
