Girard-Perregaux 1966 Blue Moon

Offering a contemporary take on a brand classic, Girard-Perregaux treats this timepiece to a new face by combining its understated and dynamic style with the ever-useful date and moon-phase functions.

Easily recognisable by its play on blue and black tones, this timeless timepiece now appears with a new face. The hours, minutes and centre seconds hands are now joined by a pointer-type date display at 6 o’clock featuring a red dot on the 31st day – surrounding the timeless elegance of a moon-phase indication – which simplifies read-off and facilitates adjustment. Throughout the year, this timepiece reveals the changing faces of the night star.

Time is marked off by curved leaf type hands sweeping over baton-type hour-markers, all featuring contemporary dimensions (40mm) yet without succumbing to ephemeral trends.
