Thank you!

Yes, the Laureato Skeleton is highly legible. I think many manufacturers have clocked onto the the legibility issue and tried to improve on that. Here are A few photos of the other skeletons or open-works I have or had. To my mid-forties eye, they are ver

Laureato Skeleton 81015

I picked this up last week. A few shots on the iPhone from this morning. I don’t think I need to tell anyone here how beautiful this piece is. Very pleased with it. What I found out as an owner is how comfortable it wears! The dimensions are very easy to

Agree with your points

As for the “common” point, I’d like to clarify. First of all, no offence meant. By common, I meant that the laureato skeleton has been allowed to be treated with less awe and respect than it deserves. Too many for sale on the secondary market from bundle

Yep 😳

Could someone share his long-time experience please?

I am considering buying a white gold Laureato Skeleton. And I would be happy to know you experience with it. Is it comfortable? Is the bracelet long enough? Are there any known issues with the watch/clasp/movement? Unfortunately I won’t be able to try it

Escapement system

Hi all, Back in 2008, GP introduced its in-house Microvar escapement system with a free sprung balance with what appears to be a variable inertia balance wheel. I recall it was introduced to their higher end models at the time which as their QPs. Does any

Hi Marc, I have not inquired on a new GP of any model since selling my Laureato skeleton.

I mentioned in another thread, I had a quality issue that was not addressed, so I sold the watch and certainly will never again buy a new GP. An older one? Yes, I think I would. I need to recall the name of the one I am most interested in. Like Thomas, wh
