BTW, the corrosion...
Assuming this is red gold, is usually caused by the copper corroding from within. At least that's what I have read somewhere. I also see some of it on the numbers, especially the 8.
I just got this Vintage 1999 chronograph today.
Last watch before the new year. This one replaces a steel ‘99 I had and sold a few years ago. (Brauner, Nicolas-I know how you feel). This is just about the perfect watch. GP has always been excellent with their casework but in my mind the 1999 and 1945 A...

I don’t see any on the numbers. I think that’s just shadows. I hope.
What a wonderful end to the year.
Sorry cannot help with your queries, only admire a beautiful timepiece. Kurt
That’s what I was hoping to hear.
Thanks. It really is a beauty. I like it so much more than the steel.
Gorgeous !
How does it wear on a small wrist ? Because of you all I’m starting to think I should own one too, since I was already in love with this model when I was in high school ! would feel nice to see one in my collection ))
Nice watch. You can send it to Baca Raton in Florida and they can change out the hands if you want. The GP and Ulysse Nardin office/repair is the same location.
I had this one which I bought used and sent in to get the correct hands. ...
That’s nice. Would like to see it in the metal at some point.
Black dial and gold case, always a great combination too.
What I still own is this simple 3 hand GP.
My first serious watch. With some corrosion on the hour hand. I think I will bring it in for service this year. They can change the hands. Congrats to yours. ...
