Not a typical business watch
But today isn’t a typical business day. A lot of internal meetings, with a few quiet moments in between to reflect and admire this wonderful piece of art. Definitely an almost meditative effect… All the best, my the watch rriends Thomas ...
Very special piece!
I'm not surprised it has this meditative effect on you. Best, Emmanuel
It's 2026............ that is **very much** the timepiece type for today's businesspeople.
The 1900s are dead, gone, decades expired... welcome to 21st Century MTR. You have the correct type of modern timepiece, come on in my friend
Hahahahaha. Great comment.
Thanks a lot for that. And you are right. 🙏 It also works with a „classic“ outfit. ...
I’ll take that, my friend! LOLLL
Though I’m not sure if it says more about the watch or about my taste in dangerous objects…
Wonderful, Thomas!
I saw one in the Bucherer in Interlaken and, as you know better than me, it’s even more wonderful in real life than in your pictures!! All the best, Jon
Thank you. 🙏☺️
I actually find the watch even more beautiful in real life, too. On photos it also appears quite large on the wrist, which it isn’t in reality. The reflections are very difficult right to capture. I am playing a little bit while sitting in the waiting roo...
Ok. Here we go! 😉
We’re having a sudden very cold weather here in Austria. So you have to dress very warmly again… ...
This is such a stunner, love everything about it!
Wishing you a lot of meditative moments with this one! Cheers, Alex
Thanks so much, Alex.
I really appreciate it. 🙏 And yes, “meditative moments” is exactly the right way to describe it… There’s something about these pieces that just slows everything down. Cheers Thomas ...
Such a beauty ❤
Love the vibe. GP high horology talent is profound. thanks for reminding us all Thomas. 🤝
Thank you so much! 🙏 I really appreciate your words.
What fascinates me about Girard-Perregaux is exactly that contrast: sometimes it feels for me like two manufactures in one. On one side, absolute top haute horlogerie (pieces like the Neo Bridges or the Three Bridges Tourbillon are just outstanding!!). Ju...
You are absolutely correct
GP is indeed two companies in one. The haute horology is a totally different department from the mainstream laureato. In 1988-90, when the GM Francois Besson did a management buy out from DESCO, he brought back the High Horology. When Luigi Macaluso bough...
This watch is sooooo cool!!
I really like the concept of flying bridges replacing the main plate to give the movement a floating effect. I wonder how robust this system is, and whether it keeps decent time.
Dear Twistarlight, thank you for your kind words. 🙏
Much appreciated! ☺️ I actually wear this beauty regularly, not just occasionally. Despite its rather unconventional construction, it has proven to be extremely robust and keeps excellent time. In that sense, it is a true daily wearer (even if one wouldn’...
Thanks for your detailed reply.
Now, I have my new grail! P.S. I guess you will check out their new flying bridges minute repeater.
🙏☺️. My pleasure!
The newly developed Calibre GP9530 of the Minute Repeater Flying Bridges is just gorgeous! The prize for this watch is crazy (three times more expensive than mine). Is it worth it? A reason to reflect… All the best Thomas
