Girard Perregaux Casquette 2.0 Quick Review

 
 By: christianch : March 11th, 2022-22:54
Just a quick review of the Girard Perregaux Casquette 2.0 that I received today. My AD was wonderfuland as promised one was waiting for me taking this photo was fairly tricky! someone else had to press the button on the right in order to display the time ...  

Very out of the box

Your new GP is some kind of a horological machine. Sharing off the grid watches is always diversity in the community. Quartz is certainly not every’s cup of tea in a mechanical watches friends community. Albeit design is here the key in my opinion, and i ... 

indeed not usual but design-wise a big winner

I also have some casio and this is more of a luxury 70's experience. The finishing is high level so I think the price is in line with quality. Indeeed Quarz not for everyone but it is really well done here. The push to tell the time not my favourite syste...

Great to talk about your watch. Let’s resume. Because, much to say. I had this yesterday on my lips, Bulova. Sure you have a GP, so i did’t call Bulova. Not only the twin, Bulova’s accutron is remarkable. And i am honest, other Bulova’s also looking good.... 

Thank you Christian. I think it is very cool although not practical for everyday watch

As the 1 second display and low water resistant. GP should have put an auto display when we flick the watch so we do not have to push a button. I wonder if the battery is a common one and whether we can replace the battery at any watchmaker without having... 

thank you, I think the battery had to be exchanged at the AD ... doesn't seem straightforward to open but I might be wrong

I don't think the developed a special battery but I've heard it will last around 2 years.

Congratulations Christian!

I love it and you wear it well. I too have my name down for this but the watch is 5 times oversubscribed in Malaysia even before the Malaysian launch on Monday so I am not holding my breath! Yes it is a strange looking device and I am actually used to a o... 

thank you! Indeed it seems very popular also here in Switzerland few pieces were available

and only at one retailer. A combination of luck and knowing the AD since many years helped! Is certainly different, doesn't compare or wants to compete with mechanical watches.

I love mechanical watches but

if this watch was mechanical, it would have cost ten times more!

Well some say it is pricey for a quartz watch

 
 By: sham1 : March 12th, 2022-11:15
but they fail to appreciate the ceramic and titanium case which for me is a huge selling point as it is always nice to have a wearable watch that will not scratch easily.

Very cool watch .

Love this style of watches a lot Huge Congrats

ah I didn't think about it! but I feel in meeting you will get noticed looking at the time

while with a normal mechanical watch you can glance it and know

Maybe these two have a mechanical variation on the watch.

The casquette 2.0 has reached USD 27K in chrono24

 
 By: hoseachandra : March 16th, 2022-15:43
Albeit is there really a buyer for that. Congratulations for you or your family who got the watch. You know the world is crazy when a quartz watch that retail for 4K now sell for 27K in less than 1 month.

wow I saw it at 222-23K but also at 40K 😧

 
 By: christianch : March 16th, 2022-18:05
I expected it to go perhaps a bit higher but not so many multiples in just a week or so from the release ! very strange! I like it so either I will keep it for myself or give it to my brother...this because I have many mechanical watches that need wrist t...
