Girard-Perregaux is defined by the iconic designs that populate its catalogue. But while the name of the brand instantly conjures images of the classic Three Golden Bridges, Girard-Perregaux is also an influential maker of simpler, time-only watches, such as this 1966 reference 49525-53-631-BK6A.
On the wrist, the Girard-Perregaux 1966 is a classic dress watch, sized comfortably at 38mm and constructed in an18k white gold case. It wears elegantly under the sleeve's cuff and is abundantly versatile across wrist sizes. In addition to the classic round profile, the purity of lines, glistening polished finish, what makes this watch so compelling is the understated dial. It is executed in a neat, minimalist tone, adorned in a classic black hue that feels timeless on the wrist. Along with the signature leaf-like hands, it also boasts sleek, slender hour indexes and a contrasting date aperture.
