The vintage 1945 Toubillon with three gold bridges has been added to Girard Perregaux’s iconic watch collection-the Tourbillon with three Bridges early this year. The new watch model is a limited edition of only 50 pieces.

The vintage 1945 rectangular case (28.60 x 30.30 mm), crafted in rose gold,  presents with a contemporary looK.  To better match the wrist, it is endowed with a a spherical profile.

The three skeleton bridges are still the biggest eye-takers. It is said that the hollow-out and the finishing took around 7 days to complete. The watch-makers of Girard-Perregaux deserve respect as their meticulous work give birth to three bridges of aesthetic simpleness and pure lines. The tourbillon is composed of 72 parts. The amazing point is that all these parts are housed within a diameter of merely one centimeter.

The vintage 1945 Toubillon with three gold bridges is powered by a self winding calibre with a platinum micro-rotor. The rotor is an patented mechanism exclusively hold by Girard-Perregaux. The rotor , making possible to maintain the distinctive architecture of the movement, is fitted behind the barrel. The movement offers a power reserve of 48 hours.

This classic vintage timepiece is presented on a alligator leather strap with a folding couple and water resistant to 30 meters. Original Published By Watch Impressions
