A Classic Masterpiece with a Modern Aura
A tribute to Art Deco, "Vintage 1945" was revived by Girard-Perregaux in 1995. Its classic yet sophisticated rectangular case is a masterpiece that expresses masculine strength while retaining elegance. Last year, two dynamic models within the series, featuring moon phase indicators and chronographs, were introduced in the XXL case. This year, in addition to last year's white dial, a charcoal grey dial has been unveiled.
The design, a symbol of "Vintage 1945," incorporates ergonomics and a striking sense of symmetry. The beautiful steel case is paired with a charcoal grey round dial, and the alternating gloss and satin finishes on the cross elements create a modern and soft aesthetic.
Meanwhile, the movement is the GP03300 caliber, a testament to Girard-Perregaux's prowess as a manufacture. Its delicate craftsmanship can be admired through the sapphire crystal case back. Two strap options are available: alligator and stainless steel bracelet. The alligator strap will arrive in Japan in July, with the bracelet version expected in the fall.
Girard-Perregaux's "Vintage 1945," which upholds the tradition of watchmaking, offers timeless beauty. The chic charcoal grey dial is a timepiece that fulfills the discerning taste of those who pursue understated elegance.
