Girard-Perregaux Olimpico 8862

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : January 2nd, 2017-01:50
Friends,


Last year I had a focus very much on the Girard-Perregaux Olimpico Chronograph line.
One of my finds from previous year is the reference 8862 from 1968.




I am still working the theme, hope one day to be able to give you a full list of all the different versions ever made.

38 mm still good on my wrist

34-36 mm are my favourite size smile

Yes, this one looks good on anybodys wrist, but...

Ah, let the new year start with some pain :)

very considerate of you smile

Great catch, my friend. The golden parts make an interesting contrast.

Indeed, the Gold ... Errrr...

I mean the silver lining!

I try to divide the pain evenly over the year, i.e. I need to start early!

P.S. You should rearrange stones wink

I tried, but Junior keeps putting the stones back to this arrangement! ;) [nt]

 By: Ares501 - Mr Green : January 2nd, 2017-16:55
they must stay like this forever!

Or until he decides to rearrange them again! ;) [nt]

Aahh.. Your lovely Olimpico series drive me crazy !.. Beauty & balance.. Sportive chic & still unobtrusive & a certain elegance!.. :))

 
 By: hs111 : January 2nd, 2017-05:04
.. My own quest & hunt will go on in 2017;
but these Olimpicos are very elusive !
wink wink

Meanwhile, enjoy yours, dear friend !
Cheers & Best,
hs

PS: Only thing remaining now is asking you
to bring some Refs along when we meet next time !


Yes, to find a original Olimpico is not easy...

Not long ago a repainted "NOS" was sold on one of the more well known sites...

This is a nice watch.

Any time you wish to divest yourself of it just give me a ring. Same for the stones.

LOL! Don't you know me at all?!!! ;)

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : January 3rd, 2017-13:53
As for the stones, that might be easier...!

Blomman

Junior would be okay with that? [nt]

At least to uncover them all....

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : January 6th, 2017-12:00
To find and fund all...?
That is another question!

Blomman

I'm not worried. I believe in you ;-)
