Another mind-blowing creation from Girard-Perregaux this year is the new version of the La Esmeralda Tourbillon “À secret”!

 

A 44mm creation in Pink Gold, taken to the highest level of finish and decoration.

With great dedication to the original Pocket watch La Esmeralda, GP have now made a wrist watch version with the same level of decoration as the original.

The finish of the case as well as the bridge arrows and movement is second to none, IMO.

 

 

Can only imagine the beauty to see the Tourbillon “dance” here!

 

But this watch also carries a secret, hence the name…

 

 

A marvel we will look deeper into details of soon!

 

 

Best

Blomman
