Multiple time zones, Compressors, Super Compressors, Word Time, GMT , Uni directional, Bi directional Tachymeter Telemetre! oh you can have it all vintage or modern... But Sometimes just sometimes.. Less IS more.. some of the most collectible and revered collections and individual watches are the pieces that are quite simply "Time Only" from the military dirty dozen to the classics of the Audemars Ultra slim (see our other listings) a style we are seeing increasingly described as "Calatrava" for the dressier time only watches. Of course to call it such is wrong, as Calatrava is to Patek Philippe as Speedmaster is to Omega. But its a nice shortcut to describing Swiss efficiency minimalism and style encapsulated in a near flawless TIME ONLY wrist watch in an understated luxury finish. Thats of course what Girard Perregaux set out to achieve when casing this cal 30.7 Chromometer. The Case Slim is in, let the big flashy divers have their place and let's move on.. Luxury REAL luxury classic luxury does not need to draw attention neither is it purposefully understated it simply IS. This case is as perfect today as it was the day it was made there is no heavy wear no evidence of over polishing on the contrary the case "edges" the Lugs the dipped fixed "Bezel" of the watch portray sharp angular finishes an added faceted depth to the watches all 18ct gold appearance like the faceting of diamonds altering light across its surface.
