Girard Perregaux

Thanks, Kev!

 

Well, different times, different fashions!
Back in the days you often saw "Waterproof" or "Antimagnetic" on the dial.
Now we see a lot of "Automatic" and "Chronograph"...
But I agree with you, I prefer the cleaner look.

Girard-Perregaux Two Register Chronographs

 
By: blomman Mr Blue : January 3rd, 2018-03:31
Fashion changes over time... But the base is still the same! Girard-Perregaux Two Register Chronographs: Ref 6557 on top of 49529. Approximately 60 years apart. 40mm for the 49529, 38mm for the 6557. Both manual movements. DNA still there! Best Blomman ...  

I love that vintage chronograph.

Crystal clear display, no clutter. No superfluous text. No date. Perfect and looks great. Regards Kev.

Thanks, Kev!

Two register chronos often come off as cleaner. Something I really like! Best Blomman

The 6557 would be a perfect match for your 8846! Best Blomman
