Girard-Perregaux Laureato Copper – 38mm

Girard-Perregaux is pleased to unveil the Laureato 38 mm Copper, a mid-sized, unisex model with a fascinating dial. Termed ‘copper’ the appearance of the dial is complex and dynamic, evincing different shades depending on the available light source. With over 230 years history, Girard-Perregaux has amassed vast experience, skilfully utilising light for the delectation of watch aficionados. Despite being a new model, this latest creation remains a Laureato, a byword for ageless design since the inaugural version was first launched in 1975.

With the arrival of the Laureato 38 mm Copper, the Maison, once again, shows its capacity to master light. The dial is not merely a one-dimensional surface, but encompasses a Clous de Paris motif. This traditional pattern is composed of multiple pyramidal structures that engage with light, bestowing tiny pockets of brilliance and shade. Viewing an image of the dial does not adequately convey how it looks when affixed to the wrist. While the dial is termed ‘copper’, its dynamic character is far more complex, transitioning from tawny brown to pink-toned gold with multiple shades in between. Captivating onlookers with its metallic-themed dial, the Laureato 38mm Copper is mid-sized and unisex, sidestepping gender stereotypes. Baton-type hands and index enunciate the hours and minutes. These elements uphold the Laureato’s timeless design language, much loved by purists since the inaugural model was unveiled in 1975.
