Girard Perregaux

Friends, I have been talking a lot about the Girard-Perregaux Deep Diver reference 8867 over the past years… And no wonder, it is such a cool and in the same time elegant watch! While collectors of many other brands talk about different versions within th...  

I find the MK 1 even bit more interesting even the MK 2 has the Trident, but the hands on the MK 1 are very original and stunning. Well done, Mr, Pair! CC

Yes, to make the pair here feels natural! Even if same ref, the character of the two are very different. Best Blomman

but I find V and W much cooler names so W for me Excellent post Master Cheers D

Yes, I favour the W over the V.... Guess you can tell fromm my Avatar that I do! Best Blomman

But this is a first! Thank you, my friend! Best Blomman

Glad you like it - you earn the title every single day

I will post my GP Diver as soon as I find one, promised. Best, Nicolas

But you better hurry before the train leaves the station....! Best, my friend Blomman

Dear Blomman, I believe you are the only one mentioning this model in the whole watch community. I happen to own one early GP 8867 V model but upon servicing it after what must have been a good 30 years, I need a hairspring replacement. Any ideas of where... 

Is that really so? I hope not since this is such a great Watch! I don't know if the Manufacture still have any spare parts, could be Worth checking with them. Otherwise I fear you need to scan the "bay" for parts or find a donnar movement. I will try to f... 

Thank you very much for your effort Blommnan As soon as I get back my GP8867 from the repair center I will post some pictures. Hope I can find a replacement soon enough to start enjoying my watch again. Best, Sofoklis

You should look for a hairspring 705/HF. An option you have would to look for a donor movement Cal 32-19 or a AS 1738 which the 32-19 is based on. Hope you will find it soon so we get to see your Deep Diver 8867! Best Blomman ...  

Thanks partly to your help a mainspring (not a hairspring) replacement is on its way to the GP deep diver. Hopefully pictures are coming up soon. Thanks again for the detailed parts list. Sofoklis

Especially when it is to get a GP icon like the 8867 to come back to life! Looking forward to see some photos once it is back on your wrist! Best Blomman
