Girard-Perregaux is known for the complexity and technicality that they bring in their watches. You can also see that in their new creation called Girard-Perregaux ww.tc Shadow Watch which displays a very complicated and interesting design.Girard Perregaux created this watch y using a ceramic material for the case which makes it very strong and yet very light that also allows the user to wear it with comfort. This case is also treated with satin finish to make it look cleaner and accentuate the shadow effect. This case is matched with a black calfskin strap which complements each other.This watch also has functions of indicating the time in 24 time zones, small seconds, minute and hour counters, date, day and night indicator, and fly back chronograph which are run by a self winding Girard Perregaux GP03387 that also has a 46 hour power reserve. All of these functions are displayed on a very complex looking dial.This very complicated watch is definitely one of those watches to collect. Unfortunately there are no words yet regarding its availability and price.

Small seconds are in this year for Girard-Perregaux. New for 2011 will be this “Petite Seconde” model in the brand’s 1966 watch collection. Though I must admit the dial, with its classic feel and Breguet style numbers looks like something from well before 1966. The case on the other hand still feels about right with the purported era. As a formal watch does with a simple dial and Arabic numerals, this watch is hard to beat. Love the blued steel hands and the very tiny touch of red for the number “60″ in the subsidiary seconds dial. You used to see watches like this from a long time ago with a red colored “12.” People used to guess why it was red, but I am thinking that it was just for style. As such, the dial has white, black, blue, and red making for a good sophisticated look. Oh, and the dial is gonna look extra good because it is done in enamel. Fancy! But really not “1966.”The case is still 40mm wide in 18k white or rose gold, and has a sapphire crystal over the front and back. Inside the relatively thin case is an in-house made Girard-Perregaux GP03300-50 automatic movement. The movement is finely decorated and has a gold rotor. Look for this timepiece sometime next year.
