In 1852, Girard & Cie was founded by watchmaker Constant Girard, but the roots of the manufacture’s watchmaking go back to 1791. Every line tells the brand’s story-a story that began 228 years ago. Every collection has a recognisable look, be it the modern Laureato and the elegant, oval-shaped ladies’ Cat’s Eye timepieces, or the striking retro influence of the Vintage 1945 collection and the brand’s signature Bridges series. Each of the strong lines of watches from the house of Girard-Perregaux connects with the history of the company and its roots of the watchmaking heritage that they draw from. One such brand is Girard-Perregaux-a centuries-old watchmaking establishment that presents innovation and even edgy designs without ever making over-the-top façades or anything too new-age. Fewer among such watches present a classical feel that reflects their rich past in the field of watchmaking. Not too many watch manufacturers create products that are distinctive in personality and express a look that is instantly identifiable. Girard-Perregaux - Haute Horlogerie Suisse Depuis 1791
