girard perregaux richeville chronograph watch

It takes a lot to stand up to competition, even more so when it's all in the family and where competitors are dynamic, innovative and every growing. And so if you have been around for a hundred years, and are still going strong, there is every reason to celebrate. To mark the Centennial year of Ermenegildo Zegna, which is one of Italy's longest standing family-driven enterprises; the company has launched limited edition luxury watches with the help of Girard-Perregaux. These special 100 watches will be sold across 20 important Ermenegildo Zegna stores worldwide.

The SIHH watch and jewelry show has begun and Girard Perregaux is showing off a wide variety of watches several of which highlight the watches vintage styles.My favorite is this one, the Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 Jackpot Tourbillon watch combines a Tourbillon and a slot machine equipped with a striking mechanism in a Vintage 1945 case. The top of the dial has three symbols that spin while the bottom part of the watch reveals the tourbillon cage. A handle on the right side of the case sets the three reels in motion which then stop randomly on one of the possible five symbols, while a hammer strikes a gong. Out of the 125 combinations, only one represents the jackpot: the three bells in a row. The 43mm case is done in pink gold.Girard-Perregaux has created a model dedicated to the Monte-Carlo Rally of 1954.
