Girard Perregaux - Thanks to Peter and GP for a great presentation of the new watches,

Thanks to Peter and GP for a great presentation of the new watches,

Jan 20, 2009,10:14 AM

a really informative and accessible way to truly appreciate the work, inventiveness and history that GP brings to the art of watch making.
I am personally taken with several of the new offerings, however, the 49930 Fly-back Chronograph Monte-Carlo 1973 represents every element I like in the ultimate car watch. I also appreciate the attention to detail paid to the past car watches and the fact it is in Stainless.
The 99195 Tourbillon with three gold bridges Perpetual calendar and chronograph is one of the most artful and striking uses of complications I have seen in quite a while. I also want to personally thank GP for the use of pink gold, my personal favorite. Thanks again for sharing all the new models and creating such a fine venue to view them all.
Best regards,
Tim
