Elegant and Delicate. Adding Special Radiance to Passing Time
Guided by the manufacture's mechanical movement, the "Girard-Perregaux GP 1966 Lady" is enveloped in a perfect fusion of refined beauty and technical prowess. If the mission of traditional watchmaking is to express time on the dial through a movement that ticks with regular beats, then this new model is a timepiece that faithfully reproduces that mission.
Diamonds adorn the bezel and lugs, capturing and holding light and attention. The case alternates between satin and mirror finishes, while the dial features delicate guilloché engraving, creating a slender impression. Brilliant-cut diamonds serve as indices, smoothly traversed by leaf-shaped hands. The 30mm case is available in pink gold or white gold.
Visible through the sapphire case back, the Calibre GP03200 is the work of the manufacture's artisans, showcasing a pink gold rotor engraved with the Girard-Perregaux logo. The Côtes de Genève decoration, chamfered bridges, and plates are also precisely laid out in every detail.
The heart and finishing, arrived at through the tradition of high-end watchmaking, achieve a strict harmony, fitting naturally on a woman's wrist not only for special occasions but also in daily life. It is truly a watch that embodies the grace befitting a modern woman.
