As I already told to Crown Comfort, I really love the lugs shape of these models as they look like the snake fangs. Really nice. Thank you Blomman for the shots and the report

The Girard-Perregaux Deep Diver 8867 V vs 8867 W – Deep into the details
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...
Congratulations, my friend, the MK 1 looks in perfect shape
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
Thank you, my friend!
Yes, to make the pair here feels natural! Even if same ref, the character of the two are very different. Best Blomman
I'm all in for MkII
but I find V and W much cooler names so W for me Excellent post Master Cheers D
V for Victory but W for Winner?! ;)
Yes, I favour the W over the V.... Guess you can tell fromm my Avatar that I do! Best Blomman
These lugs are the same for...
Omega 2913, JLC E859 and these GP Deep Divers! Best Blomman
Historically, more than we know was shared....
The Omega and JLC case even made by the same company - HF! ESPA for the GP. Best Blomman
LOL! I have been called a lot of things....
But this is a first! Thank you, my friend! Best Blomman
Sounds better than Giroracle, right? ;)
Glad you like it - you earn the title every single day
Very interesting, Blomman. Thanks for pointing out all these details.
I will post my GP Diver as soon as I find one, promised. Best, Nicolas
I will hold you to that!
But you better hurry before the train leaves the station....! Best, my friend Blomman
Hairspring replacement for GP 8867 V
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...
Welcome here SEC!
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...
Hairspring replacement
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
If your movement is the Cal 32-19 then...
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 ...
Mainspring replacement
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
Happy to help!
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
