In 1966 Girard-Perregaux received the Centenary Prize from the Neuchâtel Observatory for extraordinary achievements in watchmaking. The winning timepiece incorporated two of the company's inventions: the self-winding Gyromatic system and a fast-beat caliber that achieved a frequency of 36,000 vph.
Introduced in 2006, the current 1966 lines pays tribute to the historic events of that year. Current offerings include basic time and date only models all the way up to chronographs full and annual calendars
The Girard Perregaux 1966 with the GP03300 automatic movement
The Girard Perregaux 1966 Small Seconds also with the GP03300 automatic movement
A Full Calendar version with the GP033MO automatic movement
A chronograph with the GP03300-057 automatic movement
These are just a few current models that get there heritage from the events of 1966
Have a great week everyone
