Tried last week: Girard-Perregaux Vintage 45 small seconds date

Not a novelty at all, but I was able to try this one on the first time last week.






Ref 25835, Vintage 45 in King Size case with small seconds at 9 and date.

I must admit, that I'm disturbed by the date and I also prefer the small seconds at 6. The King Size case seems to fit perfectly but then on the other hand, the bigger XXL case has more curves and I actually prefer the XXL.

Love the vertical brushing on the dial, the case size and shape, the minimalism. But also agree with you on the date (although the small seconds at 9 don't disturb me as much) Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the feedback, K

yes, the date here is cutting into the dial in an obtrusive way. I don't mind the small seconds at 9 either, just prefer it at 6 if I had a choice. CC

Really like the King Size case...

But I prefer the no date / sub seconds at 6. The date at 1:30 which cuts out the "2" feels off for me. Best Blomman
