Ooooh, here we have some very good news coming from Girard Perregaux which just unveiled the Laureato Copper. Why such a joy from my side? Because I always thought that the 38 mm case was the perfect size for this watch. Add to that a moderate height with...
Too bad, deposit has been placed for another piece. You’d be proud of me on my next piece. It is very Nico-esque. GP playing it too safe recently by banging on the Laureatos. I wish they released the Seahawk once more, something brutal and fit for harder ...
This one convinces me too. It’s very well done. Next piece is around the same price as this, but from a brand starting with O. I believe you can induce/deduce what it is.=D
Maybe it is just perception, but on the flip side I always wondered if the movement in these GP is up to par with competition and offer decent rate…also agree with you it looks small(the movement)
And what is the movement? I assume it is GP3300 as usual. The price is a bit too confident. It is almost 50% increase from last price of 38 mm laureatos 2 years ago. It is not a limited price, so i wonder what makes the 50% increase
38 mm with the gold rotor. A bit of mix and match done here by GP. They also added the Single bridge logo which is good. (Replaced the since 1791 words). If only they would remove the word “Laureato” next 😅 It’s a nice looking dial. I tried on the 38 mm a...
Something at the bottom or the dial maybe a little “flat” ... I read somewhere that they add text to give the dial some “depth”. The royal oak tried to remove automatic and and put it back in. I recall for the Richeville, they eventually moved the “Richev...
as their champagne dial always had to be 2 tone and of course either in 36 or 41. But copper is cool enough and This one would fit the bill nicely if not for the “salty” price This is going to be a hit for sure.
...with 38mm very small wearing. When I got my 42mm Laureato a few years ago I also tried the 38mm and both my wife and the sales lady cried out : "No way,this is way too small for you" . For everyone having a wrist size of 16cm or above : try before buyi...
really excited to see they reduce the case size to 38mm. and the copper dial is stunning in these pics, will need to see it in real life. I'm intrigued with this, hopefully can give it a try very soon tfs. cheers
...'Girard Perregaux' is alread spelled out on the dial. Do you know if the dial pattern is stamped? I assume it is. This would be a fantastic beater...
...it's a watch. Put your name on it somewhere but don't overdo it. Like the 'double G' on the tail of the seconds hand on many Glashütte watches. Too cute and unnecessary...
I really don’t like the rounded under bezel on the GP. Also not a fan of the smooth edge on the over bezel. So, the whole bezel turns me off When I saw pics of the Chopard it certainly struck me as a mix of elements seen elsewhere but in person it immedia...
However, with the Alpine Eagle comes the screw bits, and this kind of distribution is kind of „special“. I cannot get used to it, despite the beautiful dials!
Pic taken a few days ago at the Chopard boutique in Sydney. It is priced 3k more than a usual Alpine Eagle with proceeds going to a Eagle conservation foundation. Not mine Not mine ...
Or “haunt” me. They are the following: O-mega SM300 Bronze Gold Glashutte Original SeaQ chrono Tudor Pelagos 39mm Omega SM300 Professional Green Blancpain FF Bathyscaphe Polar Green (very elusive) Will be collecting my daytona by december, when I travel. ...
The mysteries of life, are that some areas of myself I do not even see or know about (Johari’s Window). Perhaps there is a flamboyant extrovert that has not been unleashed in me. That piece was chosen for me. I wanted the Deepsea Blue piece but they bough...
I tried all of them. But held back. My fav version on books was the titanium version, however, in reality, the orange version is my favourite, after trying all on. If I could pick between the UD and Deepsea. It will still be the deepsea. Something about i...
Although… the too small sized movement turns me off a little bit. And I would prefer this watch with 40mm case size (but in this respect I am„special“, I know).
I put a deposit down in Dec, and the first one arrived on Sunday. Price is a little $$, but want to check it out. I have been tempted by a Laureato, but whenever given the actual chance to buy one, I’ve passed. The Green 42 was tempting, but I have some o...
