SIHH 2017: The Girard-Perregaux Collection

Jan 16, 2017,11:28 AM
 

Friends,

 

I just received the initial news from Geneva.

Here is a short line up of some of the novelties this year, but I suspect there will be more!


I think no one will be surprised that the re-birth of the Laureato last year was not a one-time thing.

This year, Girard-Perregaux follows with four new models;

 

Laureato Tourbillon: the prestige of a Gold Bridge

Here two GP icons meet; The Laureato and the arrow shaped Golden Bridge!

Two versions; Pink Gold, Titanium/White Gold.


Laureato 42 mm: masculine elegance

Three dial versions; Silver, Grey, Blue.

Three case versions; Steel, Steel/Pink Gold, Pink Gold.

Black leather strap or matching bracelet.


Laureato 38 mm: the flexibility of an icon

Three dial versions; Silver, Grey, Blue.

Two case versions; Steel, Pink Gold.

Four bezel versions; Steel, Steel/diamonds, Pink gold, Pink Gold/diamonds.

Black or White leather strap or matching bracelet.


Laureato 34 mm: graceful femininity

Three dial versions; Silver, Grey, Blue.

Three case versions; Steel, Steel/Pink Gold, Pink Gold.

Three bezel versions; Steel/diamonds, Pink gold, Pink Gold/diamonds.

Matching leather strap or matching bracelet.


Now it will be very interesting to compare the Laureato 38mm and 42mm with last year’s 41mm version!

 

We already got the news about the WW.TC joining the GP 1966 collection.

1966 WW.TC (Pre-SIHH)

Two versions; Steel, Pink gold, 40mm case.

Leather strap or bracelet.


Now let’s look at the heavy weights!

Neo-Bridges: Gateway to the future

Here Girard-Perregaux mix two strong values: Tradition and Innovation.


PVD coated Neo-Bridges, Titanium 45mm case, Automatic movement.



Tri-Axial Planetarium: Dance of the cosmos

Pink Gold 48mm case.


Rotating globe with day/night indication


 

I will return with more details on these and hopefully, later this week, some live shots.

 

Best

Blomman

Please remove 'Automatic' from Laureato.

Also the dial of Neo-Bridges is a bit confusing. Aris

I guess you will provide us with some personal impressions shortly. Overall, I think GP hit the nail on the head with the new Laureato collection. I like the fact that you have the choice of different sizes without needing to compromise. I also noticed th...

Happy to read that! I had already made an inquiry on this Neo.

TracieC has a GP, so should MichaelC, right? (of course, if she applies the reverse logic, I will be really screwed!).

+1! [nt]

NO, no! It only applies one way! ;)
