Girard Perregaux 1966 Dual Time Rose Gold.
Issued in 2014, this is not a watch we often see.
The beautiful 1966 case, a friendly complication. Not too sure about the dial, though.
The hands are disputable, too.
What do you think?
Best,
Nicolas
Super shot and wholeheartedly agree on the case!
The dial is quite eccentric, which I like, though the seconds/minute/hour hands could be made more legible.
2016 revision with the white dial and red second time zone hand
Seemed to address some of the dial / hands apprehension, still feels large case small movement situation no matter how you weigh the dial proportions
It feels to me like the last experimental era of the brand 😊🤷🏻♂️
Maybe not every reference was a full success but there was a vitality about the brand that subsequently petered out IMHO. So many experiments and watches…
Was it the reduction to integrated bracelet steel watches…
Or financials or something else that made it stop? 🤷🏻♂️
I really like this Girard Perregaux 1966 Dual Time Rose Gold.
I think the rose gold has a wonderful rich hue and I find the dial to be very legible and clean not cluttered at all.

The second time zone ring could be moved toward the outside of the dial to start with...
I rather like it!
Though very different from my time-only Omega Renaissance1894, something about markers, the rg case and the bi-color dial of that GP reminds me of it.
