Girard Perregaux Constant Escapement: My kind of Girard Perregaux.

Sep 24, 2020,02:45 AM
 

In the high end segment, Girard Perregaux made and still makes some dream watches. 


For me, the Constant Escapement is one of these watches. 

48 mm or 46 mm cases, for the moment. I do hope that they will make it a tad smaller. 

Here is a white gold one. 







Back and front side, a pure marvel. Beautiful and original. 

In the vein of the Freak and the JLC Extreme Lab One or Master Minute Repeater in titanium. 

Best,

Niciolas

Technically outstanding, of course.

Nicholas, yes sir!

There's no doubt that those three watches attract the same crowd. But, yes, the GP is big, both in diameter, and height. Also, don't forget GP Constant Force and UN Freak share the same silicium souce, Sigatec.

HAHAHA MY EL2 is at the spa also!

I'm on week 8, and being told sometime in November. I had started looking at a Zenith Defy 21 carbon to keep me company, but quickly started digging into the UN Freak line.

Great call, my kind of GP too.

Not such a match for the savings account, however!

You are alas right. ;) [nt]
