Girard-Perregaux the new Traveller Collection
The perfect companion for time lived one day at a time, the new Traveller collection from Girard-Perregaux has a strong refined and modern style, while at the same time being both casual and elegant and inspires a new way of living.
“Traveller”- The collection’s very name says it all. It describes the globetrotter juggling time zones; or anyone for whom the passing hours are a journey to be savored at every instant. Like its two models – one a chronograph with time zone indication, and the other with moon phases and large date - Traveller journeys in time, within its own time. The collection builds on the past’s expertise to reveal today’s hours, setting off to conquer the world, here and there, and everywhere, following the minutes that tick by. It experiences every moment intensely, because traveling allows the wearer to savor the passing of time, time that no one can control.
The Traveller collection is the inheritor of the iconic ww.tc Collection, with a new look. The lines are sleek, the curves dynamic, the shapes stretched: the sense of movement is at the heart of the style. The 44 mm diameter sleek silhouette belongs to the 21st century, soft and energetic at the same time. The graduated bevels of the long lugs underline their convex curves. The alternation of satinbrushed and polished finishes captures and reflects the light, enhancing each detail of the design. The dials play subtly with the depth of field, adding relief to the time displayed. Lastly, the oscillating weight and the folding clasp pay tribute to the arrow of Girard-Perregaux’s emblematic three gold Bridges, giving the collection a distinctly contemporary character.
