Girard-Perregaux Laureato 38mm Reference Guide

Key Points from the Discussion

• The Laureato 38mm can wear smaller than its stated size; one collector found it wore more like a 36mm on a 7-inch wrist, prompting a trade for the 42mm version which felt closer to 40-41mm.
• Some collectors feel that the branding on darker Laureato dials appears superficially applied, suggesting that sunken or flush wordings would enhance the aesthetic integration.
• The white dial variant of the Laureato 38mm is perceived by some as 'washed out,' and the green dial, while distinctive, does not appeal to all tastes.
• The copper dial is frequently cited as a favorite among the Laureato 38mm variations, with the blue dial also receiving strong preference over the gray, which can appear white in certain lighting conditions.
• Several contributors expressed a clear preference for the copper dial, highlighting its unique appeal within the Laureato 38mm collection.
