Good morning from the land of the rising sun ☀️ Japan🇯🇵 Osaka. I'm on holiday for the next 2 weeks.
I shall pop by the Girard-Perregaux boutique later and hopefully see the new Laureato FIFTY 81008. I was at another GP store yesterday which is in good company right next to the Patek boutique.
In the mean time, some pics and video of my rare laureato 8010 taken in Singapore. I estimate that only 30 pieces ever made of the blue dial with pink gold 2-tone. Calibre 3100. At 36 mm diameter/7.9 mm thickness and ATM 10.
Center links and bezel all solid gold.
As we know, in 1995, this is the first time the laureato was made in automatic and the first time "Laureato" Would appear on the watch.
I have included a rare seen picture of Gino Macaluso speaking to the GP team on design aspects of the 8010.
I'm glad to have it in the collection.

Hope all are doing well.
