Here is something that I really like about the GP 01800 movement. The bridge that carries the GP eagle actually looks like the wings of the GP eagle!

Black alligator strap. I might change to this when the cooler days come.
The strap holder. Also a "bridge" design.
The travel box.

On the wrist. For my 16mm wrist, 42mm is big, but not overwhelming or overpowering.

I'm drooling at your photos, they just simply outstanding!
Thanks for sharing the love with us. I have a question that just came to mind when seeing the photo of the deployment buckle. Is it actually possible to remove the folding bit and only use the attached pin buckle? That would be an awesome design. CC
I believe you can
It is a similar design to the deployant on the Breguet Marine's My AD who deals with both brands confirmed it.
Impressive pictorial report my friend. Hard to make one more complete 😳
Very nice shots and description of all these subtle details. As I can feel through your shots, the honey moon period is still active 😉 Enjoy and wear it in the best of your health. Best wishes Alkiro
Thank you, Alkiro.
I think the honeymoon period will be very long. This one is a keeper! 😄
Congratulations again
Very nice pictures and angles. Thank you for adding yet another one to my list of temptations
Your list of temptations?
Hope this will not make your task of consolidating your collection harder 😅
Amazing report!
You have portrayed the watch in almost each detail and it is off course beautiful. If I could choose... the picture of the grand tapesserie dial are unbelievable (the beauty of the dial helped a lot) but you managed to portray it at its best. Great job. B...
Excellent pictorial report Luis, wonderful job !
Many thanks for sharing, really well done Mike
Congrats again Luis! :)
Your pics have made justice to the beautiful blue dial of this watch. There are many intriguing details too! Thanks for sharing your joy here and wishing you many great years ahead enjoying this timepiece. Cheers!! Best, Wayne
Fantastic shots of a beautiful watch!
Again, congratulation, my friend! A superb watch and your photos really show the beauty! Enjoy your new baby! Best Blomman
GP chief is very proud of you and all here! :)
Love how this forum developed into a great community of people gathered around GP watches! Best Blomman
Excellent pictorila my friend!
Now you made me crave more than ever after it Cheers D
Thank you for the love, D.
As Laureato has now become one of the five pillars in GP's reorganized product line, there are and will be plenty of versions for you to choose from. Take your time. 😉
Superb photos, Luis – GP should be using them to promote the model range.
Congrats on the acquisition, but why was it that you didn’t go for the bracelet version?
Thank you for the very kind words.
The bracelet is very well made, and I understand that the bracelet version is more faithful to the original design. But after seeing both versions with my own eyes, I just preferred the look of the watch on strap, and decided to follow my intuition. 😊
Pics by Purists are often much better than those by Brands ads and sites!
Since they are taken by lovers, we can see true love and passion, KR, Max
Not only was this a magnificent report with extraordinary pictures
and great advertising for this watch...the bag it came in is so cool! So creative on GPs part!. You have a great new watch, Luis. Congratulations.
Thank you, Padj.
I think GP has a very positive future with the visions of the cure CEO. A brand that pays attention to details is a brand that worth trusting 😊
What a post!
Brilliant shots, WS winner candidates many of them! You've done more to make me lust after this one than all the official GP material 👍🏻 Appears you are truly enjoying your latest addition - rightfully so!
The devil is in the details!! Amazing photos of the watch, Luis!
And congratulations! Your photos have sparked my interest in this watch, I have a strong feeling this piece looks amazing in the flesh with all those little details. Wear in best of health!=)
Thank you.
Laureato is a GP icon that is not fully appreciated by the general public. I'm glad that it's well received by fellow Purists here. 😊
Grey is equally beautiful!
If you like it, please go for it. It's different from any grey I've seen. Very "noble". I did have a dilemma with choosing between blue and grey.
Fantastic post Luis!
Always love your detailed coverage. It makes the watch super attractive!
Wow !.. What a great pictorial to highlight the superb Laureato !.. Specifically love all your natural light dial shots !.. Really a 3-D effect..
.. All in all a "helluva watch !" Thx for sharing your step-by-step unveiling progress to glorious beauty.. Continue to wear & enjoy it in the very Best of your health ! Cheers, hs
Thank you for the kind words, hs.
We often see a lot of studio photos from advertisements or press releases from brands. As real wearers and owners, we Purists should take more natural light shots to reveal the liveliness of our treasured timepieces. That's why our weekly wristcan competi...
