An excellent summary
Thanks Nicholas ☀️
Thought I’m more of a fan of steel. I do like what GP is doing here. A lot of hard work by the design team.
No date would be better.
No decal on the display caseback would be better.
Overall, some excellent pieces at a reasonable price.
My preference would be the 38 mm as well but need to see them in person to decide.
Again, I encourage folks to don’t be tolerate any AD games (buy other watches you don’t want to deserve to get this). If they tell you they, PM me and I’ll let GP know.
Also, look at discontinued and rare pieces from the 1990s. They can’t make anymore. And there are some that were made in even smaller quantities than 188/388. They can be gotten at way cheaper now.

Newsflash: Girard Perregaux Laureato Green Ceramic Aston Martin Edition.
What do you think of these compared to original in steel?
These colored ceramic watches (and the blue AP RO too) just look plastic and cheap to me.
Same here. Just a "latest flavor" I guess, but I'd be surprised if these stand the test of time. Same with AP's colored ceramic.
It may be that they look different in person.
Not sure why black works for me either, but I will definitely stick with black and regular colored metals.
An excellent summary
The woman in the photo spoils the whole thing for me
