Catalogue Essay
- The storied partnership between Ferrari and Girard-Perregaux began in 1993 when the two iconic brands collaborated on their first timepiece together. Adorned with Ferrari's prancing horse emblem, the flyback chronograph was enthusiastically received.

- Buoyed by early success, the brands continued releasing exemplary watches combining Italian racing heritage and Swiss watchmaking expertise. In 1997, to celebrate Ferrari's 50th anniversary, Girard-Perregaux and Ferrari fittingly unveiled the exceptional limited edition "F50" perpetual calendar chronograph. Ferrari also introduced the F50 supercar in honor of its milestone.

- This anniversary tribute watch embodies the storied Ferrari-Girard-Perregaux alliance, channeling racing dynamism through nuanced watchmaking intricacy. Preserved in exceptional condition and complete with a special presentation box, this watch is a consummate symbol of the two brands' partnership.

- Also included is Girard-Perregaux's Ferrari Limited Edition Stopwatch, the ultimate accessory for Ferrari devotees, encased in lightweight titanium. Its large inky dial ensures flawless legibility. With original wooden case, guarantee, and leather lanyard, this barely used stopwatch exemplifies the grit and instinct of vintage analogue racing. Numbered 543 of 2000 pieces, it remains a quintessential accessory for Ferrari enthusiasts.

Girard Perregaux

Swiss | 1791
Celebrating its 225th anniversary in 2016, the company earned its fame as the first vertically integrated Swiss watchmaking company, manufacturing high-grade movements, cases and dials within its premises. Particularly noteworthy are the brand's three-gold-bridge tourbillon pocket watches built by Constant Girard beginning in 1867 — considered amongst the most beautiful movement architectures ever made. An active participant in Switzerland's observatory chronometry competitions, the brand won so many precision awards that they were excluded from competing in 1901.

Key models include nineteenth and twentieth century pocket watches with three gold bridges, modern tourbillon wristwatches with three gold bridges, minute repeating pocket and wristwatches, as well as sport watches such as the Laureato and Sea Hawk.
