<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe pen that sketched the idea of this watch on paper was that of an in-house designer; the fact that the name of the timepiece has obscured that of the designer is further proof of the fact that, for Girard-Perregaux, the Laureato represents above all a symbol \u2013 stressed by the will to keep the main focus on the product, and only than on communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A DIAL OPEN TO LIGHT<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFully belonging to the luxury sport watches segment, priding itself on the steel case and integrated bracelet also in steel, the Laureato has reinvented itself \u2013 sorry, its dial \u2013 again, transforming it into an ode to light. Which takes the name of\u00a0Laureato 38 mm Copper<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhy light? Because the combination of color and dial processing enhances the effect of the light on the watch, embellishing its workmanship, materials and different finishes. The\u00a0dial with the Clous de Paris motif\u00a0<\/strong>takes advantage of the small pyramidal structures that compose it, so that the light interacts with them to create alternations of light and dark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n![\"Girard-Perregaux](\"https:\/\/www.watchinsanity.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Girard_Perregaux_Laureato_Copper_Watch_Insanity_06-682x1024.jpg\")

<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nThe golden GP logo appears in place of the index at 12 o’clock and, below it, there is the Girard-Perregaux signature with the single-arrow bridge \u2013 symbol of the brand<\/strong>; all this is counterbalanced by the Laureato Automatic symbol positioned above the 6 o’clock index. The glossy background on which the writings appear recalls that of the internal rehaut with the minute track: both contribute to enlivening the surface of the dial, in contrast with the Clous de Paris finish.\u00a0The date window, at 3 o’clock, has a date disc matching that of the dial<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nTHE CASE ENCLOSING THE LAUREATO\u2019S DNA<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe Laureato 38 mm Copper has a case size designed to meet both the tastes of female and male wrists. It fits one of the trends in modern watchmaking, the diameters reduction, with cases that become more wearable and less ostentatious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking of cases, that of the watch is in steel, worked with the alternation of polish and satin finishes. A studied and accurate alternation. The Laureato 38 mm Copper is built according to the usual collection structure, with the octagonal bezel on a circular ring placed above a tonneau-shaped angular case. And on this structure Girard-Perregaux has worked masterfully on the finishes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nThe bezel is satin-finished on the surface and polished on the sides; the ring is polished; the angular tonneau case is satin, horizontally finished. An alternation of processes embodying the highest quality and attention to detail, and which is also found in the integrated bracelet made up of alternating links: the central, rectangular ones are shiny and combined with the classic H-shaped, satin-finished links. They culminate in a steel triple folding buckle. Finally, an ergonomic detail: the winding crown is oversized and well knurled, to be easily handled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nSince the case back of the Laureato 38 mm Copper is made of transparent sapphire crystal, the in-house movement is embellished with many refined processes that have been among the hallmarks of Girard-Perregaux for centuries.
