Girard-Perregaux Classic Bridges Pink Gold - SIHH 2018

Marina Milojević | 02.12.18 | 03:53 AM

For the 2018 edition of the Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie (SIHH) Girard-Perregaux unveiled two new Classic Bridges models crafted from pink gold. The new Classic Bridges watches are available in either a 45mm version, tailored for sturdier wrists, or a more discretely proportioned 40mm iteration. In both cases, the new Classic Bridges provide a breathtaking interpretation of Girard-Perregaux’s iconic gold bridges.

The new Classic Bridges models feature two beveled, rounded, mirror-polished and satin-brushed gold arrow-shaped bridges set against a partially openworked dial that provides a glimpse at the automatic winding movement finished in the spirit of high-end watchmaking. The micro rotor is visible between 10 and 11 o’clock, while the barrel reveals itself between 1 and 2 o’clock. A second golden bridge at 6 o’clock supports a balance wheel.

The entirely in-house movement, caliber GP08600-0002, is lavishly decorated and visible through the sapphire crystal case-back. The movement is assembled from 207 individual components and 29 jewels, it beats at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour, and provides a minimum of 48 hours of power reserve.

Earlier this year, in January 2019, on the occasion of the SIHH exhibition, Girard-Perregaux introduced a new concept watch – the Laureato Absolute Rock.

The innovation guarantees a full water resistance and an extreme compression of the materials during an injection procedure at high temperature. What makes each of the 100 limited edition watches irreplaceable is the integration of blue fibers associated with those of carbon. In other words, each of...

One of the most interesting astronomical watches of the year is the Girard-Perregaux Cosmos, a watch that made it to the GPHG’s list of pre-selected watches in the Calendar and Astronomy category. This poetic and highly complicated timepiece, belonging to the Bridges collection, is a stunning interpretation of the “Earth to Sky” theme. Dominating the center of the dial are two complete globes – celestial and terrestrial. At 3 o’clock, a terrestrial globe serves as a day/night indicator, while a sky chart occupies the 9 o’clock position. The ho...

The house of Girard-Perregaux adds to the 1966 collection, which pays tribute to some of the Maison’s most popular creations from the 1960s. The new member of the 1966 watch family is Girard-Perregaux 1966 Blue Moon, a contemporary take on a sporty-elegant classic. Aptly named Blue Moon, the watch features a gradient blue dial, lighter in the center and darker towards the outer edges. The blue backdrop of the dial, reminiscent of a nocturnal sky, provides a nice backdrop for contrasting baton-style hour markers and leaf-shaped hands. A single r...

The latest addition to the Laureato family is the Girard-Perregaux Laureato Skeleton, an openworked timepiece fitted with a skeletonized high-end mechanical movement Calibre GP01800-0006.

The Girard-Perregaux Laureato Skeleton is a handsome new watch with a metal bracelet and a...

In 2008, the house of Girard-Perregaux introduced the Constant Escapement, a major watchmaking breakthrough with a frame integrating a silicon blade thinner than a human hair. Providing constant amplitude and constant rate, the new constant-force escapement revolutionized the foundations of chronometry by ensuring that the watch will beat at a constant rate no matter how much power remains in the barrels. At this year’s BaselWorld watch and jewelry show, exactly ten years since the launch of the first Constant Escapement, that won the presti...

On the occasion of the SIHH 2017 exhibition, the legendary 1966 collection by Girard-Perregaux welcomes its first ww.tc model. The World Wide Time Control, or "WW.TC," stands for the world timer complication, which allows the wearer to read off time in an area of the world other than home. The world time watch is similar to the GMT or dual timezone, but with one significant advantage: while GMT watch can display time at one additional selected time zone, the world timer shows the exact time for all 24 time zones at once. This practical function...
