Saw at AD two wonderful enamel dial GPs...
Really wonderful enamel dial.... The black one was made for Japanese market LE of 34... Don't know how long ago, but almost flawless enamel dial is very, very tempting. Off-center vintage is so nice, but a bit too big for my wrist..... Anyway, GP has really quality high level finish of the enamel dials. Impressive!

Didn't know this black enamel Vintage 45!
Thanks a lot, Ken, for sharing it with us. Love enamel, love GP. Best, Nicolas.
I'd chose the 'off-centered' too.
Both a really interesting. The black enamel is really interesting but IMO the lay-out of the indications for the off-centered is a winner.
Functionally, I agree...
... I like the date and power reserve by enamel, too. But, black enamel is so rare and expensive to make, so I like the other one (size wise, too) I once saw this at GP boutique in NY (NY boutique opening LE). How about these? I would go for the black ena...
Wow, the black dial makes it look totally different! Impressive.
Well, tell me, my friend, you live where all the nice watches are, or what? Best, Nicolas
No way!
Europe is the center of horology.... Switzerland, Germany, and France.... Many thousands of miles away from here! I envy ya Have to visit someday soon! Ken
The black dial was from about 3 years ago Ken
Nice to see you discovering these 2. When i inspected the black one under my loupe, it has it's flaws, the usual pock marks, but nonetheless an impressive job. Thanks for sharing. Stephen
Indeed 3 years ago...
... launched as Japan LE of 34. You have hawk eyes and no flaw can escape your scrutinty! No enamel dial is perfect, but GP enamel is better than many I have ever seen. Very impressive piece, I agree! Ken
Thanks!
I have great respect for GP watches - a great brand with great history. And they have nice collection, too Ken
Great pics!
that vintage '45 is one of my favorite pieces from GP--the dial is absolutely exquisite! J
Agreed!
... somehow, it fits your wrist and very well made although they do not often stand out. Subtle, but very attractive one which should not bore you for a long time. Ken
Thank you, Ken!
These are great photos! I prefer the white dial and have tried it on previously (very enjoyable watch). The black dial is also quite attractive. It exudes a very different spirit than the white version. Very elegant. Thanks for the write-up! I enjoyed thi...
You are welcome :-)
I am a big fan of GP watches - hopefully I can show you one here in the near future They don't have boutique in Tokyo, do they? I wish! Ken
