crown comfortFriends, this year Girard-Perregaux did as every year not forget about the Ladies. Besides the Ladies Laureatos the Cat’s Eye is really the most recognisable Ladies Girard-Perregaux watch. The Cat’s Eye collection is of considerable size already, but adding new versions is here even more important than it may be in the other collections. Having variety and every year a new reason to get a gift for our loved ones is a good strategy...">Story

crown comfortAnd only an introduction it will be with letting the photos speak for themselves. Why? Because I’m still speechless on the impression this watch has left with me. Truly truly amazing! Even I had only like 15min with this watch at SIHH, it was love at first sight and murder when I had to give it back. The design and history… The details… The finishing… The sparkle… On my wrist…Scotty: beam me out of here...">Story

crown comfortFriends, let’s continue with more detailed coverage of the novelties from SIHH 2019 from Girard-Perregaux. This time, we will look at the Girard-Perregaux Laureato Perpetual Calendar, Ref 81035. Ok, technically, this watch has not been released at SIHH but a few weeks earlier already, but I still consider it a 2019 novelty and as I have seen it first time at SIHH, I’ll review it here now.

crown comfortFriends, let’s start with coverage of this year’s new releases from Girard-Perregaux at SIHH 2019. As usual, during the show, the booth is very crowded and you don’t really get time to deeply appreciate all the models nor do you have good natural light to take some decent photos.
