I was never able to answer to this question...
And you?

The first two pictures are round and the last two pictures are rectangular. You’re welcome 😀 NickO

Me siento más atraído por el cuadrado, pero creo que el redondo es más atemporal. Un fuerte abrazo! René
Thats a tough one 🤔

Think i need to see them in person and on the wrist before i would have to pick one . Both very appealing imho
No one wants to commit to one over the other!

I will though I would chose the rectangular case. Why? Because it combines two classic Girard Perregaux elements - the three bridges tourbillon and the uniquely GP Vintage 45 case shape. Go classic GP all the way! NickO
Round here please 😊

Why? Because I don't like rounded movements fitted into square cases. I like to see square calibers inside. And I'm not a big fan of rectangular cases, most of the times I don't like how they sit on my wrist. Again, awesome shots!
I would say at any price point

IMO the case should be designed to contain the movement, perfectly adapted to it and never the opposite.
That's an easy one. Round.

Leave me the rectangular. It won't look nice on your wrist. Tyler the honest friend

Both are very convincing in my humble opinion...

The real estate on the 1945 being excellently employed, so as not to scream round movement in a shaped watch. Would be a really difficult choice indeed, especially with the curved caseback of the 1945 thrown into the equation...
