HANDS-ON: The sleeper hit - Girard-Perregaux’s 1966 WW.TC in steel

Girard-Perregaux is one of Swiss watchmaking’s best-kept secrets. The La Chaux-de-Fonds based brand offers a complete - and compelling - package, fine pedigree, and a catalogue that ranges from the highest of high horology, through to some more accessible (yet still exceptional) pieces. But, for whatever reason, GP has long lacked the sort of name … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: The sleeper hit - Girard-Perregaux’s 1966 WW.TC in steel appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

VIDEO: Girard-Perregaux 2017 collection - the biggest controversy at SIHH?

While the watches at SIHH change every year, one thing stays reassuringly the same, and that is the drama surrounding them. Sometimes it’s big, like the deregulation of the Swiss Franc.

This year everyone’s tongues seemed … ContinuedThe post VIDEO: Girard-Perregaux 2017 collection – the biggest controversy at SIHH? appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: the Girard-Perregaux Cat’s Eye Power Reserve - what a difference a grey makes

In the spectrum of colour, grey is quite the double agent. There it goes, trudging along amid notions of overcast skies, mind-numbing office cubicles, uncertainty.

There goes grey playing its other hand in a realm populated by wolves and … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: the Girard-Perregaux Cat’s Eye Power Reserve – what a difference a grey makes appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Girard-Perregaux’s Laureato in steel - is it a steal?
