Girard-Perregaux is defined by the iconic designs that populate its catalogue. But while the name of the brand instantly conjures images of the classic Three Golden Bridges, Girard-Perregaux is also an influential maker of simpler, time-only watches, such as this 1966 reference 49545-11-432-BH6A.

On the wrist, the Girard-Perregaux 1966 is a classic dress watch, sized comfortably at 40mm and constructed in a steel DLC case. It wears elegantly under the sleeve's cuff and is abundantly versatile across wrist sizes. In addition to the classic round profile and the purity of lines, what makes this watch so compelling is the understated dial. It is executed in a neat, minimalist tone, adorned in a blue degrade finish that feels timeless on the wrist. Along with the signature leaf-like hands, it also boasts sleek and slender hour indexes.

At Second Movement, the pre-owned division of Ethos Watches, we adhere to a rigorous verification process where expert watchmakers carefully inspect every watch to certify its authenticity, ensuring it is not counterfeit. We also go to the maximum extent possible to ensure that the timepiece is not a stolen property and that all duties are paid. However, in the absence of any central database, a 100% verification is unlikely for any pre-owned entity in India. Nevertheless, we can still provide a provenance guarantee for watches purchased from Ethos.
