Looks gorgeous....could you share more shots or even of the movement?
Girard Perregaux pieces i feel, are very underrated. Especially from the Macaluso era. They are good value buys in the used market.

Here’s one I don’t wear often enough.
Being on a strap, in this heat and humidity, isn’t conducive to wearing it. And it’s on the dressy side for a chronograph. It needed winding today so I put it on and now I’m having trouble taking it off. Happy Monday. ...
Nice one Druid. I like the alternating finishes on the case, polished and brushed.
I hear ya on the heat. I've been favoring bracelet watches for the past week. M4
I understand that the weather
is far from ideal for wearing this leather strap watch, but its design is really appealing. Best, Emmanuel
Thanks Emmanuel.
It’s indeed a well thought out number. Gino Macaluso designed it when he owned GP. He does not get the recognition he really deserves.

Two more…
It has a closed case back, so no movement shot. And yes, the brand is and was underrated. Macaluso presided over a golden era for GP. Only a few people seem to know that. ...
It is a monopusher-
the same one used in the Tortue. From THA, Journe and Flageolet’s creation. This I learned from Marc, who is THE regular contributor on this Forum.
☺️ always a pleasure
And thanks for sharing some more pics of this darling. I wonder to what level the movement was finished as since it’s a solid caseback, only the watchmaker would see it. I also wonder about making an additional custom-made display caseback. It’s been done...
I think we all gravitate toward exhibition case backs these days.
Ever since they became popular they’ve become even more popular. Sometimes it’s better not to show a movement. And I think GP has/had a way of making their solid casebacks look very attractive. Whether through engraving, or brushing-which this one has bot...
Agree 👍🏻
GP had a policy during the macaluso era … all non in-house calibres has a solid caseback. (I personally this this policy was a mistake) They wanted to only show their own calibres. So this is where some have considered custom made exhibition casebacks. 🤝 ...
