Established since 1791. Today it is one of the few Swiss watch companies to develop and manufacture its own movements.

World time with day/night indication, perpetual calendar, moon phases indication and global stock market trading times

Absolutely unique, this creation of the Manufacture Girard-Perregaux is the only watch in the world to combine a perpetual calendar, the indication of time in 24 different international cities as well as the business hours of four major stock markets.

This timepiece accompanies the rhythm of the international traveller, of the businessman who juggles with time zones. The dial displays the date, the day of the week, the month and the moon phase. The mechanism takes into account the length of each month, even for the leap years and doesn’t require any manual adjustment before 2100.

The different times around the world as well as the opening hours of four stock markets – New York, London, Hong Kong and Tokyo – are indicated by an ingenious system of two mobile rings around the dial. All these functions are gathered in an elegant case that is remarkably thin given the technical content of the piece.

ONLY WATCH 2007

The Manufacture Girard-Perregaux has created a unique piece to support a noble cause: ONLY WATCH 07.

In partnership with the TimeZone's parent co. Antiquorum and the Association Monégasque contre les Myopathies, prestigious watchmakers have mobilised for the research on Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

ONLY WATCH 2007 will end up with an auction on September 20, 2007 in Monaco after the presentation of the collection in Shanghai, Hong-Kong, New York, Tokyo, Moscow and Geneva.
