Thank you for sharing this exceptional reference. The combination of color, details, complication, and proportions should have made something similar a regular offering in the high-end of the GP catalog. Subjectively, this feels pretty close to the perfect watch. Regarding the strange duplicate runs of limited editions, I have to assume that the run of 250 pieces was produced for the general public, while the 349 pieces were either produced to be given or offered to buyers of the concurrent Ferrari F50 anniversary model (349 built) at the time of purchase.
The GP Enzo was similar in concept but nearly beyond words in execution...

There was also a RG limited edition of this watch that was sold before the F50.
As for the leap year: if you look at the left-hand register you will see 4 calendars. One of those 4 is the leap year.
Thumbs up!
Generally, I like these various GPs with this PP movement and dial layout. Yet, especially this titanium Ferrari version is very much appealing. Very nice symmetry and color combination. Thanks for sharing Nicolas! BR, kolosstt
Do u have a close up of the clock hands?
I just another example which clearly showed that hour and minute hand have the color tone of the applied hours indices building a connection by color. This was also represented by white chronograph seconds with white hands on sub-dials. Found it a very in...
Interesting how such a busy dial can come off as "clean"!
Not a big fan of PC and especially in combination of chronograph since most of the times the dial gets over crowded.... But here it works! Thank you for sharing these shots, Nicolas! Best Blomman
