With a bold new look featuring revolutionary material, the Girard-Perregaux Laureato Absolute timepieces add a sporty and masculine dimension to the range
Sporty, powerful, and yet sleek-looking, the trio of Laureato Absolute watches are the newest and coolest members of Girard-Perregaux’s iconic Laureato collection. Set to surprise watch connoisseurs with their radical aesthetics, the Laureato Absolute, Laureato Absolute Chronograph and Laureato Absolute WW.TC bear robust 44mm cases cast in satin‑brushed black PVD-treated titanium, which gives them an urban, contemporary edge never seen before in Laureato’s history. The use of titanium not only ups the cool quotient, it also gives the watches the advantage of lightness despite their generous dimensions.
All three feature sunburst dials with a colour gradation running from dark blue in the centre to deep black around the rim. The white inner bezel ring with its luminescent accents accentuates the depth of the matte black hour markers. The play on colours—black as the universe, blue as the sky, combined with white accents—is intended as a nod to the “Earth to Sky” theme guiding Girard-Perregaux’s new launches for 2019.
