Baselworld 2015: Girard-Perregaux 1966 Guilloché dial

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : February 21st, 2015-01:28
Girard-Perregaux unveils a new reinterpretation of its iconic Girard-Perregaux 1966 watch, with an 18K pink gold case featuring an exclusive guilloch dial. This mechanical watchmaking and aesthetic wonder is offered in both a mens and ladies version. C...  

Typically what I feel about dates, here.

A nice work on the dial, spoiled by the date, which is too centered, therefore. The dial is superb on the jewelled version. But I prefer the non jewelled case. Best, Nicolas

The dial is magic! :)

But here, I can't argue with you about the date.... But look at the rest of the dial - MAGIC! :) Will post some thoughts and more live shots of these two soon. Best Blomman ...  

I also think

the change of the seconds hand to gold takes some charme away. I love the blued seconds hand. I probably would have kept the Guilloche exclusive to the Ladies model.

Because all brand marketing teams will tell you that

95 % of the market want a date... Which I more and more doubt about... Best, Nicolas

Its not true,,,the trouble is...

lack of taste and imagination in the majority of the brands teams,too often just concentrated on middle management and marketing..... no one gives a damn about the date,but "playing safe"is the rule.......bah! Mo

I think Purists and people with more ....

Than one or two watches are more concerned about the esthetic and design of a watch than people with only one or two watches... For most people it is more important having the date functions than the keeping the dial intact. But I do agree, this one would... 

At least for the enamel and guilloche dial

GP should have offered without a date, I think. Best Albert

As far as I know, there was one.

 
 By: Albert.J : February 21st, 2015-04:10
Although it is now discontinued. (Oh, but this one was offered without a date. Sorry for the mistake!) Best Albert ...  

;) No problems, Albert. [nt]

Really bad luck!

While reading your post, my wife saw the pictures. Her immediate reaction was: "beautiful, I want it". What's the thickness of the ladies model? I think I perhaps found the next Xmas present. Best, Kari

Bad luck or great timing...?! ;)

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : February 21st, 2015-04:26
The diameter is 30 mm, I don't have the exact thickness, would guess around 7-8 mm. It would make an excellent X-mas gift! :) Best Blomman ...  

I agree!

My wife has already 6 Patek, 2 JLC, Breguet, 2 Rolex, Zenith and I don't really know what. She has thought for a longer time about a RG watch and this GP looks like the right choice. It's even of the right side. Xmas present found - now I just need to fin... 

Not sure, will check...

But I am quite certain they have. Best Blomman
