This is the 1966 Small Seconds.  Ah - amore!

For me, it often comes back to simplicity, and the elegance of execution.  It is easy to be big and bold, but something else entirely to act with restraint.  And the result is even more spectacular!

Girard-Perregaux 1966


This just in from Girard Perregaux -

Girard-Perregaux 1966

FULL CALENDAR IN WHITE GOLD

The Swiss Haute Horlogerie Manufacture has unveiled a new version of the
Full Calendar from its Girard-Perregaux 1966 collection, this time in white
gold to beautifully accentuate its discreet elegance.

The Girard-Perregaux 1966 Full Calendar harmonizes the functions and
style of a grand watchmaking classic in an interpretation, which is both
elegant and modern. Its smooth 40- millimeter round case, perfectly polished,
houses an extremely useful complication: a full calendar, enabling the
display of the date, the day, the month and the phases of the moon.

Time elapses smoothly on the perfectly proportioned and slightly domed dial.
In support of the fine leaf-shaped hands, two windows placed side by side at
12 o’clock display the day and the month, while the moon follows its path
at 6 o’clock, surrounded by the date display.

Pleasing symmetry, optimum legibility: the Girard-Perregaux 1966 Full Calendar
in white gold satisfies the highest demands in terms of design refinement and
distinguished style.

The sapphire crystal case back reveals the automatic-winding, mechanical
movement GP033M0, designed by the Manufacture.

The Girard-Perregaux 1966 full Calendar is available in a choice of an intense
black dial or a luminous white-silvered opalin dial.
