Girard Perregaux

I dare considering it as an Icon.

A funny coincidence which made me smile.... The Ref number 5420. While the Royal Oak ref number is 5402.

Best,

I would agree!

By: blomman Mr Blue : October 18th, 2014-06:42

Minimum I would say is a modern Icon! :) Yes, you better have your numbers right...! 02... 20! ;) Best Blomman

I am happy to see that GP maintained the Vintage 45 line.

This Watch, and its modern itérations, have really something. Best, Nicolas

I will post some more on the original 1945 soon.

5420 - 5418

By: robert11a2001 : October 19th, 2014-01:29

Trovati ieri in una scatola . Il 5418 è Amphibian , credo sia molto raro. Sono referenze giustamente apprezzate dai collezionisti GP ... anche se la mia preferita è la 5254: un'orologio quasi sconosciuto ma, secondo me, bellissimo. Ciao Giuseppe ...

I love what you find in your " scatole ", Giuseppe. Wow! [nt]

By: amanico : October 19th, 2014-01:32

Ah, Giuseppe! :)

By: blomman Mr Blue : October 19th, 2014-01:44

You really know how to hurt me! ;) Please post some more photos! Best Blomman

Andwhile we are at it, Giuseppe, can you explain us what are the differences, other than..

By: amanico : October 19th, 2014-02:21

Water resistant cases? Best, Nicolas.

Ref 5418

By: TS1987 : October 19th, 2014-07:33

is the all stainless steel model. I was sniped on a mint example by another Purist while trying to buy it and I've never seen another mint condition 5418. Same dial as the 5420, but steel godrons, not gold.

GP Amphibian

Amphoan è un marchio Girard Perregaux in uso su orologi " tecnici " ascritti agli anni 40. Di solito si tende a considerare Amphibian solo questo modello..... ma sono almeno due modelli diversi che differiscono per movimento e spesore cassa ..... con anch...

5254 Amphibian con calibro 91

By: robert11a2001 : October 19th, 2014-11:32

Ecco qualche foto. L'orologio è in po' sporco , le fotografie non gli rendono giustizia...... dal vivo ha linee di essere riprese dalla maison. Ha le clamps e le parti in oro sono mobili. Ciao Giuseppe ...

Wow, the case is in super shape! [nt]

By: amanico : October 19th, 2014-11:53

What a fantastic case! :)

By: blomman Mr Blue : October 19th, 2014-13:22

Love this case! :) Stunning watch, thank you for sharing! Best Blomman

this case looks very very very similar to this Eterna.... did GP and Eterna worked on developing waterproof watches together?

By: vlad : August 23rd, 2018-18:55

Sorry, I do not know much about GP or Eterna. Compare case construction details .... ...

Very nice Eterna!

By: blomman Mr Blue : August 27th, 2018-11:59

Not aware of any official collaboration between GP and Eterna... But at this point in time, many brands used the same case makers for their watches. So often you see similar or even same cases cross brands. For example, look at JLC Deep Sea Alarm E 857, G...
