Hands-on with the Girard-Perregaux 1966 Perpetual Calendar, Ref 49547

Sober, elegant, legible, this is a good offer from G.P. Now, add an Equation of Time, and make it in white metal, too, and it would be even more interesting! [nt]

I hear you, although I think on that dial it would be hard to add an EoT without causing too much clutter. [nt]

Beautifull and unusually look for a annual calender, even more with equitation. Very nice and elegant watches. Thanks for share! [nt]

Thanks Walter. The Annual Calendar EoT is very dear to my heart [nt]

All of the 1966 series is so beautiful...

Thanks jporos...yes, the asymmetry is great.

thank you CC

Thanks Gelato, it is indeed very elegant. [nt]

The whole concept is different from what you usually see in a perpetual calendar, that's why it is to great. Thanks KMII [nt]

Exactly it! [nt]

I don’t know which I prefer, but if I were to have both, those are the metals I’d want for each model.

Thanks CJ, yeah the combo of the elegant case with the asymmetrical dial is superb. [nt]

Very nice piece & pics !.. Still classy but this asymmetric appeal delivers a special appeal

Many thanks, HS. As you know, the Annual Calendar EoT was also my choice. [nt]
