Ref: 8017 chronograph in all its glory
I really love this execution of the Laureato. Thanks to this forum I now understand this is a non olimipico execution but I think GP got it spot on with the understated matt brushed finish and the simpler dial (eg. no tachometer). And in my opinion the strap is sublime without the interruption of the polished links. I have only ever seen one other of these with red chronograph hand and modern minute and hour hands which I personally think makes it a little too sporty. Anyone out there with the same watch?

Very cool! :)
Kind of stealth look on this version of the 8017! I like it! Thank you for sharing! Best Blomman PS. Yes, this forum is THE place to discuss GP watches! CC is king of the1990-2010 period!
Many thanks Micaels for showing your 8017.
Really like the combination of the sporty black dial with the frosted case and bracelet. A very cool look. Best wishes, CC
