Girard-Perregaux Laureato Chronograph Ti49 Watch
Girard-Perregaux's celebrated Laureato debuted in 1975, but over the ensuing 49 years, it's never appeared in titanium. Until now. The Laureato Chronograph Ti49 has a 42mm case crafted from Grade 5 titanium, given contrasting brushed and polished finishes to add depth to its octagonal bezel, circular plinth, and tonneau-shaped base. A grey Clous de Paris dial continues the tonal look, as do the grey PVD-treated hands and indexes, which are lined with white lume for readability. The snailed counters break up the dial's pattern, as does the date window at 4:30. The Ti49 is powered by a self-winding manufacture calibre GP03300 movement and sits on a matching integrated titanium bracelet.
