If it is the laurel series that makes me remember Girard-Perregaux, then the Golden Bridge series is the reason why I planted Girard-Perregaux. In 1860, GP founder Constance Killard designed a movement with three parallel bridges, successfully reversing the traditional concept of a mechanical movement with its legendary movement design with a unique structure. The barrel bridge, center and tourbillon are designed as arrow-shaped bridges at both ends and arranged in parallel so that the barrel, gear train and tourbillon can be fixed in a straight line on the same axis, and then set with dazzling rubies. Later, this design was also known as the "Three Golden Bridges", a three-in-one structure of the Three Golden Bridges, symbolizing the past, present and future. In 2014, Girard-Perregaux gave a modern interpretation to the three-bridge bridge, the new Neo Bridges with a three-dimensional effect made of titanium, a design that can be seen in many of the watches launched in recent years. Therefore, the three Golden Bridge series watches recommended for you today actually use the new plate bridge design of Neo Bridges, and it may not be an exaggeration to say that they are the three most worthwhile gold bridge series watches, so let's take a look if you are interested.

Model Details: Watch Comments: Constant force has always been a subject of continuous research by various watchmaking brands, and many devices have been launched for this purpose, but all of them have been a symptom but not a cure, and in 2013, Girard-Perregaux launched the Constant Force Escapement LM watches, shocking the world. Over the past 10 years, Girard-Perregaux has been innovating and developing a new constant-force escapement. **The watch uses 13 patented technologies (30% of which are new patents) to improve both appearance and performance. The new constant-force escapement features a case of grade 5 titanium with a diameter of 45 mm and a sapphire crystal "box" that allows the wearer to easily identify the various elements on the dial from all angles. The dial is made of skeletonized Dauphine hour and minute hands, treated with rhodium plating and coated with luminescent material, so that the time can be clearly displayed not only during the day, but also in dim light. The leaf-folded hairspring in the escapement, located under the disc, is only 14 microns, 1 4 to 1 6 times the size of a human hair, and is a great test of craftsmanship. At the heart of the watch is a hand-wound GP09200 calibre, certified by the COSC Institute, which lasts for at least 7 days. Girard-Perregaux Gold Bridge Series 84000-21-3236-5CX

Details: Reviews: Girard-Perregaux's partnership with Aston Martin, a classic British luxury car brand, began in 2021 and has been going on for nearly three years. Instead of the conventional dial, the GP0840000-2164 calibre is displayed upside down on the front of the watch, bringing the mechanical charm to life more directly. It provides the watch with a power reserve of approximately 48 hours and is water-resistant to 30 metres. On the dial, we can see a number of designs related to the automotive sector, such as the two new bridges in Aston Martin race green, the floating hour markers and minute scale borrowed from the Aston Martin tachometer, and the skeletonized baton hands** inspired by the grille on supercars. We can see that there is a barrel at 1:30 on the dial, but both the barrel and the miniature rotor are inspired by the brakes behind the Aston Martin DB12 spoked wheels, which are the essence of Girard-Perregaux and Aston Martin creations. The cooperation between Girard-Perregaux and Aston Martin is not only the superposition of the brand logo and logo, but also the collision and integration of ideas, and the exchange and cooperation of spiritual concepts.
Girard-Perregaux Gold Bridge 82000-11-631-FA6A
Model: 82000-11-631-FA6A
Domestic public price: 177000
Diameter: 44 mm.
Case thickness: 1220 mm.
Caliber number: GP01800-1170
Case material: Stainless steel.
Water resistance: 30 meters.
Model Details: Watch Reviews: This watch is currently the lowest model on sale in the Golden Bridge series, positioned as the entry-level product of the series, with a public price of RMB 177,000, which is very friendly to watch friends who like Golden Bridge but are constrained by budget. However, due to the influence of **, this watch does not have any complications, but it can still impress with its unique design. As we can see, like the other models in the Bridge Collection, the dial of this watch has a skeleton shape, with the larger mechanism at 6 o'clock being the variable inertia balance. The GP01800-1170 calibre is another high-end automatic mechanical movement produced by the brand, with a dynamic reserve time of 54 hours, and the symmetrical design of the front of the movement brings a harmonious viewing experience.
Summary: I believe that most of the friends who are impressed by Girard-Perregaux are because of the famous tourbillon with three golden bridges, which is both eye-catching and exciting. But in fact, Girard-Perregaux has updated it in recent years, no longer limited to tourbillons, but has introduced more products, such as single-bridge, double-bridge watches without tourbillons, or constant-force watches, etc., which has also allowed more people to own a gold bridge watch and feel its charm. So careful watch friends can find that the three watches recommended for you today correspond to the high, medium and low price points of the GP Girard-Perregaux Golden Bridge series, and you can choose according to your budget.
