The house of Girard-Perregaux is pleased to unveil its new 1966 Small Second watch, which represents a subtle reflection of the brand's core values and its mastery in fine watch***.Designed in the classical style, the new Girard-Perregaux extraordinary watch boggles the public's imagination with its incredible purity. Demonstrating the love for details close to perfection, the model is proposed with a 40 mm round-shaped case. It is rendered in white or rose gold. The case is equipped with a time-setting crown, located at 3 o'clock. The water-resistance of the model is assured down to 30 meters.Both front and back sides of the timepiece are fitted with high quality sapphire crystals. The top glass is held in place by a bezel, also sculptured in white or rose gold. The bottom sapphire crystal, meanwhile, sheds the light on the details of the in-house automatic movement - calibre GP03300-50. It oscillates at the rate of 28,800 vibrations per hour and boasts a 46-hour power reserve.This mechanism serves to animate the functions of hour, minutes and small seconds, which can be read off on a dial, clothed in white "Grand Feu" enamel. A tough assignment, which can be accomplished by a very few experts, this remarkable technique involves fixing the enamel powder and assuring its harmonious balance through heat during delicate firing stages. Characterized by a high level of resistance, the material of enamel gives the display of the new 1966 Small Second watch a truly exceptional character.The dial is completed with black-painted Arabic numerals. Gliding smoothly over them are blued steel leaf-shaped hour and minutes hands. The small seconds tick away in a counter, featured at 6 o'clock. The hand, which gracefully skims around this sub-dial, is also crafted from blued steel. Completing the refined design of the watch face is the company's logo, which resides beneath the 12 o'clock hour-marker.Aimed at the lovers of timeless design and modern technology, the new Girard-Perregaux watch is teamed with a black leather strap.Look through a fine selection of Girard-Perregaux watches:

The Girard-Perregaux marque presented their latest interpretations of the 1966 series at the SIHH exhibition, held recently in Geneva.The 1966 collection first appeared in 2006 and since it’s arrival has become an ever-more important element of the Girard-Perregaux portfolio, with it’s popularity growing in this ultra-competitive sector.Complimenting the new column-wheel Chronograph and the Full Calendar models, I particularly like the 1966 Small Seconds piece.The Girard-Perregaux 1966 Small SecondsHoused in a slim and elegant 38mm palladium case, the Small Seconds is an unfussy and understated work, but that classic minimalism is central to it’s appeal to me. A rarer member of the platinum group of metals, palladium is a naturally lustrous metal. More resistant to scratching than gold, it gives the watch a wonderfully bright and shining finish.The brushed metal dial is a demonstration of simplistic design and is beautifully legible. There are no features such as minutes markers, highlighted subdial or magnified date, no luminous hands or marks. The G-P branding, the hour markers along with the small seconds markers are imprinted onto the dial. Only the slender baton markers applied at the 3, 6, 9 and 12 and the square date window interupt the otherwise pebble-smooth su***ce.At the 9 o’clock position is the small seconds itself. Set onto the dial, the oxidised blue steel hand sweeps around it’s miniature kingdom.The watch features an in-house GP03300-0039 automatic movement, which can be observed through the sapphire crystal caseback. It is mounted on an alligator strap with tang buckle, emphasising it’s classic no-frills zeitgeist.Released in a very limited 199 pieces, this is one which is not going to be gathering dust in Girard-Perregaux’s dealers windows for long.Girard-Perregaux 1966 Small Seconds Technical specifications:CASEMaterial: palladiumDiameter: 38.00 mmHeight: 8.62 mmCrystal: antireflective sapphireCase-back: sapphire crystal, press-inWater resistance: 3 ATMMOVEMENTMovement: Girard-Perregaux GP03300-0039, automaticCalibre: 11?'''Frequency: 28,800 vibrations/hour (4 Hz)Power reserve: min. 46 hoursJewels: 28Functions: hour, minute, small second, dateSTRAPMaterial: alligatorStrap size: 20.00/16.00 mmStrap reference: BC2016-BK60-3BF-FBuckle: white gold pin buckleBuckle reference: B/A.1653A-A53A1Limited edition of 199 piecesPopularity: 10% [?]
