Girard-Perregaux Introduces Five New Colorful Timepieces to Its Laureato Collection

Old-school categorizations no longer apply-women are buying men's timepieces, men are buying women's; men are buying diamond accented watches, women are buying tool watches Vacheron Constantin recently released a 36.5 mm Historiques American 1921 on a red leather strap and chose not to market it specifically to ladies or men, promoting the new timepiece as unisex Girard-Perregaux's latest 38 mm Summer Edition timepieces, introduced this month to the Laureato collection, are being touted as "Uniquely capable of jumping the gender barrier" The timepiece features a Clou de Paris hobnail pattern on the dial with a painted finish encased in an octagonal bezel, which, on this new model, is set with 56 brilliant-cut diamonds.

The new 38 mm Summer Edition Laureato features the manufacture's in-house, self-winding GP03300 movement, which has a main plate and oscillating weight engraved with a Côtes de Genève pattern and features 46 hours of power reserve For ladies that still prefer a more traditionally female-proportioned timepiece, Girard-Perregaux has also introduced a 34 mm Laureato Summer Edition in pink and sea green The 34 mm and 38 mm Laureato Summer Edition timepieces are limited to 75 pieces in each version and come fitted with a stainless steel bracelet or a rubber strap to match the dial.
