Girard-Perregaux to support the 2011 Christie s Green Auction, A Bid to Save the Earth

All of the proceedings from this event are going straight to the “Bid to Save the Earth” annual event. Last year the Green Auction raised $2.4 million for non-profit environmental organizations such as Conservation International, Natural Resources Defense Council and Oceana.



The Swiss Haute Horlogerie Manufacture Girard-Perregaux created a unique piece for this year’s event: the ww.tc Chronograph for Green Auction. The watch combines chronograph and date indication with the world time zones complication. It is crafted in stainless steel case and offered in generous proportions with 43mm in diameter. The watch houses an exclusive automatic in-house movement, GP033C0, which is also visible through the transparent case-back. The movement is decorated by circular graining on the main plate, Côtes de Genève on the bridges and oscillating weight, and blued steel screws. The case-back is engraved with the commemorative hand-engraved inscription “Green Auction”.

As you can see on the picture, the watch is designed in the spirit of the Green Auction cause, with milky white dial, symbolizing the purity and order, and 24-hour ring in green/white contrast. The watch is water resistant to 5 meters and provides 46 hours of power reserve. It is mounted on elegant black alligator strap.
