G-P amazes again
CC,
Thanks for the puzzling story.
Superb watch; congratulations.
It is amazing how many unusual models were produced by G-P that most people like me would not imagine for that era.
Nowadays, such quirkiness is normal and expected but G-P was doing it already.
Rotating hour indicator.
Tonneau case.
Blue screen dialside.
You may be correct about tan straps enhancing blue dial accents. Omega also issued tan strap with Speedmaster Big Arrow in the early 2000s that had very blue highlights.
Regards
MTF
Back from service: Girard-Perregaux Richeville Day/Night 27610; time for a quick review
Friends, A few weeks ago, I got back my GP Richeville Day/Night from service. I got this watch with the help of a Purist about a year ago, but it turned out to have a provlem with the rotating 24hr ring. Very strange problem it was. If I put down the watc...
That one is a gem my friend!!!!
As you said one of most interesting modern GPs. Glad all went well! Cheers D

Thanks MTF
GP does have a good track record of making out-of-the-box-thinking watches and the Richeville Day/Night is one of them.
" One of the most interesting modern GP ". I agree with that statement, I would only add affordable between interesting and modern.
I find the case a bit bulky, but I can live with that. This Richeville Night and Day is very high in my wish list, for the reasons you mentioned. An excellent watch. Enjoy it! Best, Nicolas
Happy to see this one back at home!
Such a great original GP! Cool, playful with a twist... Just how we love to see GP! Best Blomman
Thanks my friend. Equally glad to now have it for good and all times
Playful, that's it exactly.
Glad to hear that you got it back dear CC
The rotating day/night 24 hours disc is something really cool and so unusual. That’s mainly why I was interested in buying this GP few years ago. Unfortunately, as I already told you, that didn’t work on my wrist. That’s life 😕 Enjoy yours now it’s back 😉...
Thanks Alkiro
sad that it didn't work out for you, but the Richeville case is quite hefty, but I like it that way.
That's a cool watch and one I didn't know.
It has a lot of visual appeal. Thanks for posting. M4
Definitely one of my favourite GPs!
Has the pleasure of seeing it live in Zagreb last year and have been smitten ever since! The case is very comfortable on the wrist and the different way of telling time a real cherry on the cake
Aahhh.. This Richville Night & Day is one of my fav GPs in your stable.. It renders an eclectic, yet cool appeal..
.. Also like the composition of the dial & the little red accents. Continue to wear it in the very Best of your health ! Best, hs
