Girard Perregaux

Simple and clean. Great looking watch, great price point. This message has been edited by crown comfort on 2019-01-20 12:49:42 ...  

I am relatively new to luxury watches. Is having no date considered to be more pure or traditional? I usually like having the date on my watches, but clearly it is not a deal breaker for me.

more seriously, a date window often disturbs the symmetry of a dial, especially on a Chronograph. It's a matter of taste and Marketing tells us that the big majority wants to have a date, so all is fine

Date is terrifying especially between 4-5

Why? It is part of the idea behind the watch. Best, Nicolas

Yeah, I agree Nico. Sometimes placement of the date looks awkward. I also have this watch, I really like how the calendar is displayed on this piece. Flows with the overall look of the watch, IMO. ...  

That is a very nice looking GP watch you have! That's the 49480, right? Please feel free to post more about it. Best Blomman

The Anni Fiat, Ref 4948 is a great looking Chrono, pure without date. CC PS: I took the liberty to crop the black borders of your picture

Thanks for cleaning it up! And for those who are curious, it is a 38mm, and it wears that size. For me, it is about as small as I like to go. But really a great watch.

Despite the Sellita movement... May I ask - what‘s the lug to lug size in total?

This 2892 is a ETA workhorse movement , extremely reliable. A beautyful piece, enjoy.

LX- Here you go. My wrist is a little over 7”. Hope this helps provide some context. Cheers Drew ...

Very classy , especially loosing the date window. Great price point compared to the 4945 and 4946 both with date window. Wear with pride .

I own one too and love it as a dress chronograph. No date, a balanced dial, six blued hands, and sensibly sized at 38mm (though it wears like a 39mm). And very fairly priced too.
