HANDS-ON: The sleeper hit - Girard-Perregaux’s 1966 WW.TC in steel

Girard-Perregaux is one of Swiss watchmaking’s best-kept secrets. The La Chaux-de-Fonds based brand offers a complete - and compelling - package, fine pedigree, and a catalogue that ranges from the highest of high horology, through to some more accessible (yet still exceptional) pieces.

HANDS-ON: the Girard-Perregaux Cat’s Eye Power Reserve - what a difference a grey makes

In the spectrum of colour, grey is quite the double agent. There it goes, trudging along amid notions of overcast skies, mind-numbing office cubicles, uncertainty.

HANDS-ON: Girard-Perregaux’s Laureato in steel - is it a steal?
