Description:
The rare automatic watch by Girard Perregeaux from the 1950s is finely designed. The watch adorns the narrower wrist in particular. The screwed stainless steel case provides security in wearing comfort and shows the high quality of the watch. The beautifully faceted, original crown is also still present and pleasantly rounds off the watch.
