The Girard-Perregaux 220th Anniversary Parties ...
It's a big year for GP, Daos, with three major 220th anniversary events coming up in Singapore (September), Shanghai (October), and New York (November) as well as other celebrations planned in Paris, Zurich, Madrid, Dubai and others. I can only suggest that PuristS keep their ears to the ground!

Stefano Macaluso visits Melbourne to celebrate the 220th Anniversary
Melbourne horology enthusiasts had the pleasure of meeting Stefano Macaluso, President of Girard-Perregaux, Sylvain van Muylders and the Australian Girard-Perregaux team on Tuesday night. It was an evening of sharing good food, wine and watches. We also h...
Bit of a horological 24hrs for you :)
Dinner at Felix, Eva, GP. Busy watch related week! Thanks for sharing the evening. I think that apart from the pocket watches, my favourites are the enamelled dialled ones. Oh and the food.
I do it all for you guys!
It's a tough job, but willing to put myself on the line in the name of horology. And, yes, you would have enjoyed the food! Andrew
Some lovely pieces there Andrew
The vintage looking chrono and the full calendar (unadored) look very neat, as well as some fascinating historical peices. Such a shame I missed an invite - I'm a very, very deep fan of the duck curry at Pearl. Between all your watch gtgs lately, how do y...
Amazing watches!
GP's lineup gets better and better every year! The ww.tc and the 1966 are my favorite models (besides the Three bridge tourbillon of course!) Thanks for the fantastic report.
You've got good taste then ...
They are my favorites as well. And speaking with Stefano, GP have a lot of ideas and plans for the future. The next couple of years should be very interesting. Andrew
What a great evening, Andrew!
Glad to see Mr. Macaluso going out and about meeting and greeting the Girard Perregaux following. Was it a big turnout? What was the reaction from the guests towards the GP collection? Judjing by what a guest took home that evening, the event was a succes...
A great success ...
Hi Alex, Yes I think the evening was a great success, but not just in terms of watches sold. Stefano and the teams are great ambassadors for the brand. You can feel their love for the history, as well as the current range. I didn't count heads, but there ...
Great to hear that, Andrew!
Indeed Stefano has a very keen appreciation for art, history, design and aesthetics, considering his background in architecture, which makes for a very interesting conversation when around him. It is wonderful to learn that GP is reaching out to more peop...
Looks like a fantastic time was had!
Wish I could've been there! The enamel dial 1966 watches are to die for! Just lovely all around! I hope GP brings their anniversary party to Los Angeles! Cheers, Daos

I attended the Auckland dinner
Wonderful evening, Mr Macaluso is incredibly personable and approachable. Watches were fantastic as well, especially the enamel dial 1966s, perfectly done. GP are doing very well by the sound of things, their current watches are very very fine indeed.
Looks like fun!
I hope you had fun for all of us here cheering you on from the sidelines. The watches are beautiful! My favorite is the 1966 full calendar unadorned of course! And the tuna looks fresh if only it were cooked! Thanks for sharing buddy! Andrew Andrew Andrew...
