Girard-Perregaux has added a new version to the 38mm product line of the Laureato model family, the successful representative in the luxury sports watch segment.
The integrated bracelet sports watch concept, which is among the most popular segments of luxury watchmaking, continues to rise without slowing down. This trend, which started with Audemars Piguet Royal Oak that came to life in 1972 in the hands of the famous watch guru Gerald Genta, also hosts the most desired models of the watch world today.
Girard-Perregaux's flagship in this concept, Lauerato, continues to evolve with newly added versions. The new version, added to the mid-size/unisex model family, which has attracted attention, especially with the shrinking case diameters in recent years, is appreciated with its copper-toned dial.
The new model comes with a 38mm case diameter, which represents the medium size of the product group. The stainless steel case promises a very comfortable experience with its 10mm overall height. There is an octagonal bezel on the front of the case, which has already become one of the cult designs with its architecture that combines straight and rounded lines. The elegant case, hosting scratch-resistant sapphire crystals on both sides, also houses a GP-signed winding crown. The case allows the watch to accompany its wearer under almost any condition with its 100-meter water resistance rating in line with the segment it belongs to.

Although the name of the model includes the word Copper, the stylish dial can take on many tones ranging from brown to pink gold with the Hobnail background pattern, one of the symbol details of the model family. Baton hands and indices display the time on the dial. The date function can be viewed through the window at 3 o'clock via a date disc with matching background color. The Super-LumiNOVA phosphor material, on the other hand, ensures optimum legibility even in low-light environments.
The new version features the Caliber GP03300-2034 movement, which we are familiar with from the model family. The 218-piece/27 jewels automatic movement beats at a frequency of 4Hz (28,800vph) and offers a power reserve of up to 46 hours when fully wound. Equipped with a solid gold rotor as well as decorative details in line with brand standards, the in-house movement can be enjoyed through the sapphire crystal display case back.
Girard-Perregaux Laureato 38mm Copper comes with a steel bracelet, which is among the most successful designs in the industry with its lines that integrate with the case perfectly as well as its comfort. The stylish bracelet is fixed to the wrist with a folding clip with the GP logo.
The list price for the model, which is planned to reach sales points by December 2022, is CHF 14'200.
