Introducing The Girard-Perregaux Laureato Absolute Chronograph 8Tech
Laureato Absolute Chronograph 8Tech is the latest release by Girard-Perregaux.
The new chronograph that adds to the Laureato Absolute collection is presented in a bold case measuring 44mm in diameter and 15.15mm thick, made of carbon and titanium. The composite obtained through the 8Tech technique that gives the watch its name, joins carbon fibres to titanium powder through a complex process, resulting in an anthracite case that resembles an abstract painting. The case also features an octagonal bezel, sapphire crystal on both sides, a crown at three o’clock with crown guards two rectangular pushers that operate the chronograph function, and finally 100m water resistance.
On its gradient grey dial, we can find underneath hour markers and three counters at 3-6-9 o’clock, a date window at 4:30 and three centre hands filled with luminescent material.
The open case back showcases its in-house automatic Caliber GP03300-1058, which operates at 28,800 Vph and offers up to 46 hours of power reserve.
The chronograph is attached to a textured black rubber strap with a titanium folding clasp, which will retail for USD 27,800.
