Friends,

   

Now when we are closing in on the Holidays, it is time to think about what we should get our special lady for Christmas…

One way to go would be traditional – chocolate, perfume or maybe a scarf…

But if you really want to go the extra mile…

How about the Girard-Perregaux Cat’s Eye Aventurine?!

smile

It shows class, good taste and will definitely make her happy!


One thing that I really like with GP is that they offer real watches for the ladies!

Not just a smaller “less worked” version of a men’s watch.

This Cat’s Eye Aventurine is a great example of a real ladies’ watch!

 

A   Pink Gold creation that is both a Jewellery and a Watch plus she would probably get very surprised…

So, you might even say it is a “Kinder Egg” for ladies!

The dark blue dial is like a night sky. Tingling and sparking!

The 18 diamonds on the dial enhances the night sky look and if that was not enough, there are another 62 diamonds on the bezel.

The Pink Gold leaf hands are accompanied with applied Pink Gold numerals at twelve and a day/night indicator under the sub-second at six.

The “rose bud” crown together with the oval case shape makes this timepiece even more jewellery like.

Inside the Pink Gold case, 35.44 x 30.44 and 11.29 mm thick, is an automatic movement.

Through the open case back you get a view of the calibre GP03300-0090.

Beautifully decorated oscillating weight and another 32 jewels complementing those on the outside of the case.

The dial is behaving just like the night sky, shifting in colours from lighter blue to almost black.

In the photos, the day/night indicator shows the moon and a night sky of 22 ct Gold.

To make the watch complete, it comes with a dark blue alligator strap and Pink Gold folding buckle.

 

What do you think? A nice option for Xmas….?

 

I am already in trouble since my wife saw these photos…

So, I thought I should pay it forward and show them to you!

wink

 

 

Best

Nice but without diamond on the bezel it would be perfect (even if I have a true preference for the Breguet Reine de Naples with its MOP dial) ;-)

Best wishes Alkiro

Why oh why do the brands think a lady watch HAS TO BE jeweled?

I can imagine it even nicer without diamonds on the bezel! Best, Nicolas
