girard-perregaux vintage 1945 black strap rose gold men swiss watches

Girard-Perregaux has recently unveiled a few luxury watches, which could make a great gift for a special woman this Noel.First, the company revealed the 1966 Small Second, which comes with an enamel dial and is finished off in either a white or rose gold design, Watch Luxus reported.Now, the news source noted how the elegant fashion watchmaker is to release the Cat's Eye Small Second, which is as luxurious as any product before it.Some of the design elements which should appeal to watch buyers as soon as they glimpse upon this product include a mother-of-pearl dial – in either a black or white tone – and a white or red gold case being highlighted with some dazzling diamond additions.The markers on the watch face are also designed with care, as each hour is sculptured using a precious set stone, except for the six, nine and 12 o'clock positions, which is manufactured in gold wire cut.Buyers may also notice the omission of the three o'clock marker, which has been replaced by a halo-shaped date window.

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.
