Trivia:
- First GP model selected to use the in-house cal 3100

- This is the transition model that took the Laureato from quartz to mechanical in the year of its 20th anniversary.
I find this 2-tone pink gold and steel Laureato to be the epitome of Italian design flair.
With a solid gold bezel, links, applied indices and hands, the heft provides the wearer a reminder of its its presence with no apologies.
Yet, with its conservative size and slimness, it also speaks of a quiet confidence embedded in its elegant sporty charisma.
This is the one you wear at drinks after the polo match.
Why do I love GP Neo-vintage?
Hopefully, the pictures will speak for themselves.

As always, I look forward to your questions and comments.

Which other models are you referring to?
Beautiful. Much more elegant than the newer iteration.
Thanks.
Thanks Marc. Wish GP also bring back interesting models in the past, for example Gyrodate
Yes, I agree with you.
☺️ wear no watch during the game
I forgot to add Tritium dial to the list
Thanks Shafran
Your photos of the real watch are so much better than their marketing material
