Girard-Perregaux Railtimer 8856, Monday love...
Friends,
one of my most treasured vintage GPs, is the Girard-Perregaux Railtimer 8856, manual wind Chronometer HF.
A manual wind Chronometer HF with Caliber 30 is already a rare bird...
A Railtimer even more...
And a Railtimer in Steel case in perfect condition...
The GP Railtimer Chronometer HF was made for the Canadian Railway and version 8856 was the first release with the "wrong" 12 at the top instead of the typical 0.
A treasure!

Great watch, my friend.
I don't believe I have seen this one. Just all around perfect, especially the orange second hand. What's the size?
Next time, I'll pack it. It's a good 34-35mm
but wears bigger. BTW: that orange hand glows under UV light, super-cool, but impossible to capture with a camera.
A truly fantastic piece!
Almost unobtainable these days, though. Thanks for sharing it, CC!
Thanks K. I think even in the past, those are really rare, so it is not a case
of "train left the station"...it's just hardly any trains.
That‘s a compelling Vintage juwel !.. Not quite sure if I have already seen it in real... If not, pls next time.. :))
This is a fine watch, a very fine watch !! Congrats to that achievement ! Have a good week ! Best, hs
Many thanks, HS. I'm fairly sure I had shared it with you before
but perhaps it was a short encounter, so will pack it next time again.
