Girard-Perregaux Gyrodate Chronometer HF Ref. 9080 FM
We are delighted to present the rare and innovative Girard-Perregaux Gyrodate Chronometer HF, a standout piece from GP’s golden era of watchmaking in the 1960s. This high-beat chronometer, running at an impressive 36,000 vph, showcases Girard-Perregaux’s pioneering spirit as the first to debut high-frequency movements in 1966.
The caliber 42 HF Chronometer movement, inspected by our watchmaker, offers exceptional precision and is housed within a monobloc 35mm case that remains beautifully sharp and unpolished, preserving its original lines and character. The white dial complements the watch’s elegant yet functional design, while the rare bidirectional bezel interacts with the internal chapter ring to create a unique calendar function.
By aligning the “1” on the bezel with the day of the week corresponding to the 1st of the month, the internal chapter ring maps out the rest of the month, letting you determine any date’s day of the week at a glance—an ingenious feature that sets this watch apart.
