I like it too but only in steel or gold
In ceramic, it felt too light and small for me. Strangely, with the rubber strap, it also felt too small for me. Even with a steel case. So, full steel or gold case and bracelet 38 mm for me only.
But I also like the 40 mm laureato-olimpico chronograph 8017 as well as the 41 mm LE anniversary laureato 81000

Gunmetal Anthracite grey dial Laureato 38 mm
Discontinued now. I like the monotone look and I like that it’s discontinued with not many made as it had a short production run. Reminds me of the new titanium chronograph dial color. ...
Looking good Marc!
You’ve captured the dial color and texture perfectly 👏🏻👏🏻 A rare bird indeed. Very nice too because GP did NOT introduce another grey dial time and date 38 mm recently , unlike they did with the blue dial variant recently 🤷🏻♂️ Any news or timeline for th...
Thanks Jesse 🫶🏼
I remember recommending the grey dial to you some time ago but your heart was set on the blue dial. Either way, the blue 38 is beautiful as well. Prices are still holding quite well for the blue 38 mm as we haven’t seen they many of the new 38 mm blue on ...
Yes Marc, your grey dial is striking
But if I’m going to own one Laureato, we both know it has to be the blue! 🙂 Q4 for the new 50th anniversary?? I can’t wait that long!! 😂😂 They really know how to build drama over there at GP 😂😂
Each must choose what speaks to them most
and then stick by the decision. There is no way that you would have known that GP was going to come out with another blue 38 mm. I kinda suspected it but was not sure. The ramp up has started for the laureato with the reissue of the Deep Diver cushion cas...
Interesting narrative Marc!
I didn’t know that. Personally I don’t see the deep diver and Laureato sharing much DNA as far as the dials and case shapes are concerned. But maybe I haven’t looked close enough. Have a great day my friend! 🍻
I like this variant very much
and have considered buying it at some point. Best, Emmanuel ...
Looks great on your wrist 🫶🏼
When did you try it on? I assume before it was discontinued. Is it a 38 mm or 42 mm ? 🤝
Back in 2021, 38 mm, just like yours.
I also tried silver and blue (and even the chrono). Beautiful pieces. ...
Super shots.
I see, 2021. Before the 38 mm grey and blue dial was discontinued on Jan 2022. 🫶🏼

I thought so too until I tried it on for real
One of those that looked better in pics than on my wrist. Skin tone didn’t match the dial color for me. 🤝
