Girard-Perregaux Laureato Absolute Aston Martin F1® Edition
Celebrating the 75th anniversary of Formula One, Girard-Perregaux and Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team present the Laureato Absolute Aston Martin F1® Edition, a model incorporating a racing-inspired green dial and a high-performance in-house Manufacture movement.
The Laureato Absolute Aston Martin F1® Edition is housed in a 44 mm case formed of Grade 5 titanium. Executed in Aston Martin Racing Green, the dial hue reinforces the automotive theme.
The Aston Martin hour and minute hands are partially openworked and were inspired by the front grille widely found adorning the car marque’s road cars, such as the iconic DB12. They are also lined with luminescent material, aiding readability in restricted light conditions. Each hour is denoted with an applied index, again incorporating luminescent treatment.
The centre seconds hand and date display, executed in lime green, a hue that graces the Aston Martin Formula One car, complete the inventory of functions.
Consistent with all Laureato models, the case design masterfully unites contrasting shapes to glorious effect. Executed in Aston Martin Racing Green, the dial incorporates lime and white accents, while the caseback is engraved with the British marque’s iconic emblem. Suitable for adventure, the Laureato Absolute Aston Martin F1® Edition looks eminently stylish wherever it goes. With its simple to read dial and 300 metre water resistance, the watch also proves notably practical.
To complement the case, the Laureato Absolute Aston Martin F1® Edition is presented on a green FKM rubber fabric-effect strap that has been optimally designed to deliver a superb feel. The strap is fitted with a titanium folding clasp with a micro-adjustment system, allowing the wearer to finely adjust the strap to achieve the perfect fit. Indeed, it is the soft and supple nature of the strap, together with the ergonomic clasp, that make this watch a comfortable companion, ideally suited to daily wear.
Ticking beneath the solid caseback is an in-house Manufacture movement, the GP03300 calibre. Crafted at the company’s production facility in La Chaux-de-Fonds, the self-winding movement is optimally shaped for the Laureato model. It features an oscillating weight adorned with circular Côtes de Genève motif.
Additional movement refinements include straight Côtes de Genève on the bridges, bevelling, mirror-polished screws, circular graining on the main plate and engraved gilded text.
