Girard-Perregaux Museum Exhibition In Paris
As part of GP's Young Watchmakers Tour, there will be an exhibition in the City of Lights in August!
When: August 29 to September 5, 2012
Where: Christie's, 9 Avenue Matignon, 75008 Paris, France
The exhibition is open to the public every day from 9:30am to 6:00pm.
I encourage anyone who is in Paris during this time to attend, and please report back if you do! Here's a glimpse of what you may encounter at the exhibition:
Above -- the famed Esmeralda pocket watch.
A vintage GP secret watch in the shape of a book. What is sometimes called a "livre" (French for book) watch.
A Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 Tourbillon With Three Gold Bridges.

Yes, I received the invitation a few days ago.
And yes, !i will be there, normally. I just can't wait to meet them and their watches. ;) Best, Sister. Nicovlad.
Can't wait for your impressions, Vlad! :-)
I like that little livre watch! So charming! Cheers, Daos
I don't see it on the calendar at this time. Sorry!
Perhaps, a day trip to Paris is in order? :-) Cheers, Daos
Hope your weather gets better!
Olympics are coming soon -- is this good or bad though? Means even more tourists! :-) Cheers, Daos
