SIHH 2019: Girard-Perregaux introduces the Laureato Absolute, the Cosmos and Earth-to-Sky theme

Jan 14, 2019,01:58 AM

Friends,

it is time to take a sneak peek at the Novelties from SIHH 2019 from Girard-Perregaux. Expect to see some live shots later this week, but let’s have a quick look what’s new this year.

Laureato Absolute:

A new interpretation of the classic Laureato, bigger, bolder and deeper. We have 3 versions in Titanium black DLC treated:

The time-only/date

The Chronograph and

The WW.TC

Looking forward seeing them in the flesh.

Cosmos:

This year’s Haute Horlogerie Masterpiece with Tourbillon, rotating Earth and Sky.

1966 “Earth to Sky” Edition

This year a whole theme of “Earth to Sky” is dominating the novelties, so it makes sense to also release a special 1966 Limited Edition. Steel case, again black DLC treated with blue sunburst dial.

More details and live pics to follow.

Best,

CC

Those Laureato Abosute models are too Victorinox for me, sorry. The Earth and Sky looks amazing. Thanks. Vte

Thanks Vte. Let's see if there are other things that are more traditional. Will report soon. [nt]

Looks like black year for GP

By: Ares501 - Mr Green : January 14th, 2019-05:51

Wonder if there will be more during SIHH or/and during the year Of course among presented I like Haute Horlogerie Masterpiece with Tourbillon, rotating Earth and Sky most Cheers D

Let's hope it is only a "black" year when it comes to case colours. [nt]

By: crown comfort : January 14th, 2019-07:20

Should be black in numbers, too! [nt]

By: Pour le Mérite : January 14th, 2019-08:06

You know which one I'm waiting for, hehehe... [nt]

By: zabreg1 Mr White : January 14th, 2019-07:04

I know, maybe I find something suitable next door at the U.N booth. Will let you know. ;) [nt]

By: crown comfort : January 14th, 2019-07:21

They haven’t merged yet? [nt]

By: zabreg1 Mr White : January 14th, 2019-07:43

Only same owner 😊 [nt]

By: KMII : January 14th, 2019-20:59

I'm patiently waiting for a cross-over GP model with UN DNA. [nt]

By: zabreg1 Mr White : January 15th, 2019-00:07

Any concrete DNA you’re looking for?

By: KMII : January 15th, 2019-00:34

Sonata, Freak...?

The Earth and Sky piece is very cool.

By: TheMadDruid : January 14th, 2019-07:12

I assume it can be used as a two timezone watch?

Thanks Padj. From what I have read, yes it can display second time zone. [nt]

By: crown comfort : January 14th, 2019-07:21

Like the Laureato absolute

By: Mohannad (aka Riddler) : January 14th, 2019-07:28

a bit macho-esh and modern

Thanks M, I can see you getting one :) [nt]

By: crown comfort : January 14th, 2019-13:22

i can see myself getting one too

By: Mohannad (aka Riddler) : January 14th, 2019-22:28

any idea on retail prices?

Hm, ....

By: blomman Mr Blue : January 14th, 2019-11:13

Love blue dials in general but not a huge fan of black case watches... Need to see live shots before any real opinion... The Earth and Sky Tourbillon looks really impressive! Best Blomman

I share your feelings, but I hope I can see some classic GP Novelties as well... [nt]

By: crown comfort : January 14th, 2019-13:16

Macho elegance.... they leave a good impression! Not sure if DLC flatters the lugs of the 1966, but it’s an interesting piece. Overall, pretty cool stuff! [nt]

By: Cru Jones : January 14th, 2019-15:33

Uh-oh.... do I spy “GIRARD” on the rubber strap? :-/ [nt]

By: Cru Jones : January 14th, 2019-15:34

The carbon glass case on the Laureato Chrono is very cool and interesting. [nt]
