Girard Perregaux

Dear enthusiasts,

i´m very glad to share some quick impressions of CONCORSO ITALIANO, a "celebration of italian style" (tm).
Concorso is one of, if not THE highlight in the "Monterey Week", which probably makes for the best event in the world if you´re into fine cars and passionate car nuts. It´s great fun, great locations and thus a wonderful opportunity to share the passion about our two special brands by the not less passionate staff of Girard-Perregaux and JeanRichard in the US.
More informations about the event can be found on the official Concorso website
http://www.concorso.com

Headed by Ron Jackson, CEO and President of TRADEMA USA, the wonderful team with Jaimie, Shirley, Michael and all others truly go an extra mile to spread the word and share their enthusiasm about the brands and the watches, which makes for a very well frequented and much cherished key attraction during the exhibitions!

More later, so for now some quick impressions of CONCORSO ITALIANO 2007, with sincere thanks to Ron Jackson of GP USA!

You will see, Americans are truly lucky folks

With thanks for letting us participate in the fun!!!

Hi Peter,
Is there a concours to guess which one of those lovely damsels' hair is really blond and which one's breast are not... enhanced?
Lovely watches as usual and interesting autos.

G'day,

to get some input on what is CONCORSO ITALIANO, please feel kindly invited to have a look at our past coverage:
gp.watchprosite.com=

It´s truly a feast for all enthusiasts appreciating the finer things in life. And that´s not just limited to cars!
But the festival is much more a series of events in their own rights, starting from cousine over car exhibitions up to the awards for the various classes!
What a wonderful environment to showcase Girard-Perregaux and JeanRichard, which definetely find a place like no other!

For watch lovers, GP-authorized dealer LUSSORI in Carmel each years makes a visit during the "Monterey Week" a special experience; this will be part of additional coverage and you will see, cars and watches DO make a nice pair

For now, some assorted impressions from www.CONCORSO.com which is the official event website and provides MANY many more informations:
