Actually GP and AP impressed me most this year
Thanks DJE. The 1966 Minute Repeater represents everything I love about our hobby... complicated, gorgeous simplicity. It makes me look back to last year's 1966 small seconds with the enamel dial. I have not been moved by GP before but there are a number of pieces that moved me this year. Best,
SIHH 2012: Girard-Perregaux unveils new marvels and there is one for you!
There was one very bad piece of news this year at the SIHH. Girard-Perregaux will leave the SIHH in 2013 and will join Baselworld. At least we had marvellous watches to discover and try to forget! The most striking watch (IMVHO) proposed this year is a La...
2 big stars, for sure, with the GP 1966 Minute Repeater and the Laureato Tourbillon ...
With 3 spinel bridges... I share your enthusiasm on these 2 watches, Jerome... 2 of the SIHH 2012 stars, IMO. Less convinced by the Vintage 66 220TH anniversary, due to the presence of a date... But I am not a big fan of the date window, in general, as I ...
Agreed
Hi Nicolas, I agree with all you wrote. The Laureato is just mesmerizing! I'd like to spend more time with the minute repeater to know more about it. Regarding the Vintage 45 I find them gorgeously designed and indeed too large for me! They will fit large...
I am sure you will find your Vintage 45, Jerome.
What about the case of the early 2000s? You know, this delicious 2499, for example? The moonphase sharing the same case was an awesome watch, too. There are rtoo many tempting things to get, in this brand... Best of luck in your hunt, my friend. Nicolas
I know
Hi, I keep an eye on some oldies indeed, but I'd like a modern one.... I'll see, there are priorities too, maybe for a blue dialed full steel watch! Best Dje
Thanks for the great look and good to see those
watches on your wrist! I am sorry to have missed the last GP year at SIHH but am sure they will have a splash at Basel when they jump in that lake. As always, enjoy the Jerome touch with the narrative, very captivating Sir. Best, Tim
No watch! I can't type with a watch on anymore,
just place it next to the computer, better to look at that way. The WWTC and one of the Traveler II's were both out this week, still great pieces and excellent on the road. Thanks for all the reports, some great reading. Best to all, Tim
wow the jelly blue bridges
r quite chic & refeshing! one Q: r they still making the sapphire/white bridges along with these new special colour bridges? i would very much like to see firey red bridges in black titanium case! cheers, Ed~
Thanks for the excellent pictures.
I'm going to say it again, would love to wear that Laureato as my everyday beater. Beautiful and interesting GP novelties for this year. Cheers, Vte
Some beautiful watches! Thanks for the preview
I am going to have to go inspect some 1966 models. Cazalea

Thanks a lot Jérôme for your comprehensive report.
I was seduced too by the MR and by the Laureato. I will also do a report. But I would like to come back to your first comment. In my point of view, I don't find any trouble in seeing GP joining Baselworld. In the very specific context of GP, I think it wi...
You're right FX, the problem is for me, not for GP!
Hi, As I rarely attend Baselworld I may not see them very often! Thank you for your comments. Best Dje
There are a lot of nice watches in this new collection.
I really like the 1966 annual calender equation of time with the black dial. The tourbillon with 3 gold bridges is always a favorite of mine. I also think the women's tourbillon looks great. I don't always like tourbillons being displayed on the dial, but...
What else to say about that Laureato...
Its just sublime,normal version or blue bridges,well any will do actually,it is just mesmerizing. The MR is also quite stunning but didn t have the pleasure to hear it... GP is growing on me a lot,one day I will own one but which one? I must say that even...
