Rare Girard-Perregaux Laureato Perpetual Calendar “Clous de Paris” Blue Boutique 42mm Reference No. 81035-11-431-11A Watch
Description Girard-Perregaux Laureato Perpetual Calendar “Clous de Paris” Blue Boutique Stainless Steel 42mm. The day of the week is displayed in a sundial at nine o'clock, the date is between 1 and 2, and the leap-year display is nestled right above a window that opens onto a disk to display the months. Dial is a stunning galvanic blue with Clous de Paris motif and blued steel luminescent and blue steel baton-type hands. The integrated stainless steel bracelet features brushed and polished finishes and has a triple deployant buckle. Functions include Hours, minutes, center seconds, perpetual calendar with date, day, month, and leap-year indicators. To display the calendar indications, GP has equipped its Laureato Perpetual Calendar with the module introduced on the 1966 Perpetual Calendar new generation. This module is clever, simple and protected. No recessed pushers in the caseband here but instead a single push button, located at 8 o’clock, which controls the day cycle. The setting of the date, month and type of year (leap or non-leap year) is directly accessible by the crown and operates in both directions. This Girard Perregaux Laureato Perpetual Calendar 81035-11-431-11A has an in-house manufacture mechanical automatic self-winding Girard Perregaux caliber GP01800-0033 movement. It's rhodium plated with cotes de Geneve embellishment, and it's constructed with 46 jewels, a straight-line lever escapement, and a shock absorber system. The mechanism oscillates at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz). The Laureato collection, which remains as successful as ever, reinterprets the great watchmaking classics while remaining faithful to its contemporary spirit and sporty chic. To tackle the masterful complication represented by the perpetual calendar, Girard-Perregaux has designed a Laureato that is all about subtle positional shifts arranged in a dynamic equilibrium. Driven by a purpose-built automatic movement, and unique in its kind, the Laureato Perpetual Calendar combines intensity of style with the pleasure of daily wear. Simple to read and easy-to-adjust, it is the result of an ergonomic approach to operation and wearability pushed to its utmost limits. Carved from a 42mm steel block, alternately polished and satin-finished with the characteristic care demonstrated by the Manufacture Girard-Perregaux, it is attached to the wrist with a bracelet of the same nature, finish and quality. Thus, appearing in this unique, all-steel and asymmetrical configuration, the Laureato Perpetual Calendar asserts its status as a watch exuding a strong, architectural presence. Its blue dial adorned with a Clous de Paris hobnail pattern, against which the white indications stand out in striking contrast, sets the final touch to this resolutely modern timepiece. Nobly Born: Laureato was born under the finest auspices. Designed by a Milanese architect in the 1970s, it immediately established itself as an object of art, history and form, a watchmaking icon. The spirit of this creation is intact and continues to progress in the latest generation of Laureato. Its metallic bracelet with alternating polished and satin-finish surfaces; its case featuring lugs seamlessly integrated into its design; its octagonal polished bezel inscribed in a circle: everything about this model reveals a quest for pleasing proportions and ergonomics. This approach to watch design has given rise to an intense ‘envelope’ with its own unique style, which both protects and contains functional components. This vision is identical to that of an architect. Here, the challenge is concentrated within the few cubic centimeters of the Laureato Perpetual Calendar, which one observes and experiences close up, directly on the skin. The stakes are all the higher given the numerous indications involved in a perpetual calendar, which raises the question of their readability, their adjustment as well as their ability to fit into the daily life of the watch wearer. Rethought: At the heart of the Laureato Perpetual Calendar beats a new fine watchmaking movement, specifically created to equip this watch, caliber GP01800-0033. It is entirely developed, produced, finished and assembled within the walls of the Manufacture Girard-Perregaux. In addition to the hours and minutes, it indicates the day, date, month and nature of the current year, whether leap or not. The perpetual calendar is indeed able to follow the irregular cycle that governs the length of months, whether they last 28 or 29 days in the case of February, 30 or 31 days for the other eleven months. It requires only one manual correction every 100 years. One of the technical challenges of this complication lies in its display mode. In view of the profound architectural inspiration of the Laureato collection, Girard-Perregaux has equipped the Laureato Perpetual Calendar with subdials arranged in an unusual order. The days are thus shown at 9 o’clock and the pointer-type date display between 2 and 3 o’clock, while the month appears through a large window at 6 o’clock, marked by an off-centered pointer at 5 o’clock. Just above it, a smooth textured area divided into four sections reveals the nature of the current year. The balance prevailing on this dial is not determined by symmetry, but instead by a layout based on harmoniously offset indications. Through this break with conventional aesthetic order, Girard-Perregaux signals the uniqueness of Laureato and of this new movement. Simplified: Caliber GP01800-0033 is an exception to generally accepted watch industry rules. With its four indications, a perpetual calendar naturally takes a while to set when the watch has stopped and must be reset to the current date. Instead of the usual configuration, which provides each calendar indication with a separate corrector, the Laureato Perpetual Calendar uses a single button, located at 8 o’clock, which controls the day cycle. The setting of the date, month and type of year (leap or non-leap year) is directly accessible by the crown and operates in both directions, thereby ensuring exceptional user-friendliness. Beautifully Finished: Caliber GP01800-0033 does not however deviate from tradition as far as its finishes are concerned. The movement’s baseplate is entirely circular-grained and decorated with Côtes de Genève executed in the Manufacture Girard-Perregaux in La Chaux-de-Fonds. The bridges and the oscillating weight, which ensures the automatic winding of the caliber, also feature a Côtes de Genève motif, as well as entirely hand-crafted beveling. Among the many elegant and refined aspects of this innovative haute horlogerie movement is its finesse. At only 6mm high, it helps confine the case to an overall thickness of 11.84 mm. Reliably Tasteful: Its harmonious proportions, refined and contrasting colors, along with its ease of adjustment and reading, all contribute to the easy-wear look and feel of the Laureato Perpetual Calendar. Fully attired in steel, it is capable of adapting to every situation, whether dressy, casual or informal. This is the very nature of the sporty chic style, which simplifies the life of its wearer by its versatility. It is indeed the nature of Laureato, which draws its strength from the values of the Manufacture Girard-Perregaux, while looking resolutely to the future.
