good insight
in this very nice brand, and a great complication. Thank you for this .
I feel the old version is more balanced, for me no need for a combined chronograph in a world timer or perpetual.
Is the world timer a separate complication placed on top of the movement or is it 1 design and built ?
Girard-Perregaux, Traveller WW TC Pink Gold – a second look
Friends, Nicolas has already posted a review on this watch. The Traveller WW TC Pink Gold Reference: 49700-52. We have discussed a lot about the new case. Pros and cons. Personally I prefer not to have the extra crown at nine, but in the same time my pers...
re: second look
Have to agree with you about crowns at the 9 o'clock position. I don't care for it as in some designs it digs too much into the skin. However, this piece does look cool in PG, thanks for sharing the pics! -MW
I still prefer the former WW TC. Even if the current Traveller has sme good points.
Such as the lack of crown at 9, the dial, and the rotor. But the case of the former version had more elegance. One which was superb, was the version without chronograph, with its smaller case, and, but I am not sure, without date. Best, Nicolas
Yes, the old case is ...
More elegant, but I still think GP made good job upgrading the Traveller. Thank you for your input, my friend. Best Blomman
Hmmm.. Not that easy.. Either tic-tac I would rate excellent & would love to have.. ;)
- Yes, the smaller case scores with more versatility, but the new one apparently will wear smaller due to the lug-shaping.. - I am a real fan of the new dial, with the longitude/ Latitude plus the resulting pattern of, well , tiles. - Very ' á propos' for...
I think the only solution for you, my friend...
Is to get both! ;) Now you know why I collect series of a model rather than separate watches.... ;) Best Blomman
I not only prefer the old styled case ...
But I also believe that the gold case is way too heavy for a travel watch. Cheers, Nilo
Afraid of overweight on the airplane...?! ;)
Well, the Traveller WW tc comes in several different metals: SS, TI, PG - so there are options. But I get your point, Nilo... Not all the time you would like to have a gold watch on your wrist when travelling... Best, my friend Blomman
You know that ...
I'm traditionalist :) I prefer old one...old case old hands and good old crown at nine not the most practical but it gave the watch that special signature and charm Once more great review Yours D
I should have known....! ;)
Thank you for your input and nice comments, my friend. :) Yes, the old one have a lot of charm! I think the only solution here is to get one new, one old! ;) Best Blomman
That would be known as
blomman style ;) Yes very true both :) Sincerely yours and thank you for all the great work you are doing here on GP forum Damjan
