Catalogue Essay
Stepping into the millennium in year 2000, Girard Perregaux revealed the brand's new world time wristwatch the WW. TC model (World-Wide Time Control). Taking DNA from the brand's Classique Elegance linage, Luigi Macaluso, president of Girard Perregaux and former motor racing driver, combined his passion for horology and motorsports with this new vision. The creation was a feature-packed 43mm diameter world time wristwatch with an added chronograph mechanism. Operated by two opposite crowns, the two-inner rotating rings indicating cities and 24 hours can be adjusted on the get-go for modern jet-setters. Versatile and extremely practical, the present 18K pink gold variant with an ash grey dial is perfect for any gentlemen in their business casual attire during the week, and a great timepiece to wear while catching the next weekend F1 grand prix. Preserved in excellent overall condition, the present lot is accompanied with its original guarantee and accessories.
