Description

Steel watch, size 42 mm, automatic movement
The Laureato 42 mm is presented in a stainless steel case and upholds the Laureato tradition of juxtaposing polished and satin finished surfaces throughout. With a modest height of just 10.68 mm, this model readily slips beneath a shirt cuff. The matching steel bracelet is optimally shaped to provide a comfortable means of uniting the watch with its wearer. At the time of its launch in 1975, the inaugural watch was called the ‘Quartz Chronometer’. However, in Italy, the most important market for Girard-Perregaux at the time, the model soon became known among the cognoscenti as the ‘the graduate (Laureato in Italian)’. This affectionate name served as acknowledgement of the model’s prize-winning success and extraordinary precision. Coincidentally, the octagonal bezel sits atop the case, like a laurel crown sits upon the head of a laureate. Primarily aesthetic, the bezel is a luxurious detail that contributes to the model’s distinctive look. The case, along with its integrated bracelet, confers impressive levels of wearer comfort. When viewed across a room, the Laureato is instantly recognisable yet suitable for all occasions.
