The Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 XXL Chronograph takes inspiration from the Art Deco design. The 1920s or the Roaring 20s saw a massive shift in design aesthetics where the watches went from being timelessly round to geometric style, and this Vintage 1945 XXL Chronograph harnesses that bold sophistication mixed with contemporary nuances. The case takes a rectangular form with a convex profile, allowing it to sit comfortably on the wearer’s wrist. It strongly carries angular and rounded curves that perfectly hammer home the 20s sensibility, manifesting a vintage appeal. The smooth polished finish adds a soupcon of classiness to the case, along with brushed surfaces for contrast. It measures 37mm to complement the modern taste and is paired with a black rubber strap.

The dial flaunts a tri-compax configuration with tone-on-tone black subdials featuring contrasting white chapter rings with markers. The hands and markers are highly luminous, and additional functionality is furnished by the presence of a date window between four and five-o’clock markers. Visible through the exhibition caseback, this Vintage 1945 XXL Chronograph uses calibre GP 3370. Overall, this watch is a beautiful juxtaposition of vintage roots and modern style, all underscored by Girard-Perregaux's ingenuity.

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.
