Girard Perregaux Manual Winding Chronograph, Ref 49529: A missed opportunity?
A very nice case.... 
A lovely dial, even if a bit too centered, and the presence of a date, which was not mandatory, at least for me...

If only they didn't put this date, and offered some white metal and different dial colors...
Best,
Nicolas

Yes, I have nothing against big dates. The best example: The Datograph. Even the name suggests that the date has been fully thought since the beginning of the concept of this watch.
Now, back to this GP, I regret GP didn't develop it. They had something, which had to have a life. It wasn't the case, alas...
