GIRARD-PERREGAUXCat’s Eye Day & Night NEW

The Girard-Perregaux Manufacture presents this seductive new version of its iconic Cat's Eye collection, widely acclaimed for its magnificent aesthetic and mechanical features.

The beauty of this "Day & Night" model stylishly combines the curves of the Cat's Eye case with beautifully keeping a steady rhythm for the constant ballet of the hours around the dial.  Its emblematic oval case – the signature feature of the collection –  is crafted out of pink gold, while its bezel sparkles with 62 brilliant-cut diamonds.

Its lugs, curved delicately inwards, harmoniously extend the proportions of the case, providing the wrist with a perfect fit to ensure maximum comfort for the wearer.  Its crown, carefully chiseled into the form of a flower, emphasizes even further this model's ultra-feminine elegance.

Its guilloché mother-of-pearl dial is an open invitation to dream. Like the sun, its rays shine outward from the day and night indicator. So as to intensify the brilliance of the dial, the hours are indicated by teardrop-shaped hour markers set with diamonds.  Time is measured out by delicate leaf-shaped hands for the hours and minutes, and by a baton-type hand for the seconds.  Their path is protected by a slightly domed sapphire crystal.

RICHARD MILLERM011 Automatic Flyback Chronograph BLACK PHANTOM Limited Edition NEW

Black TZP ceramic is extremely resistant to scratches while not being brittle. In the Black Phantom, the material is blasted to give it a matte finish, and then used to form the front and back bezels of the timepiece’s tripartite case.

The center caseband of the Black Phantom is crafted from NTPT® (North Thin Ply Technology) carbon. Already used in the fields of aerospace technology, the manufacture of racing sales, and Formula 1 racecar design, NTPT carbon is incredibly strong and light, and composed of multiple layers of parallel filaments obtained by dividing carbon fibers.

These thin layers are impregnated with resin and then woven on a special machine that modifies the direction of the weft, creating a distinctive visual effect that is reminiscent of precious wood. In addition to the center caseband, the Black Phantom’s crown and pushers are also made from NTPT carbon.

The hour indicators, counters, hands and flange pair dark black elements with touches of white for ideal legibility. The Black Phantom is presented on a black rubber strap with black DLC titanium buckle.
