Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 Jackpot Tourbillon
Many admiring comments about this watch, but I’m on the fence. When it comes to watches, I’m a firm believer in the “do-one-thing-at-a-time” theory. For me, a watch is about telling the time (in the widest sense of the word) beautifully and exquisitely. Nothing should really take away from that. Not even the prospect of playing slot machines in my lunch hour.
Having said that, novel concept. See the handle at the right side of the case? Pull it and watch the slot machine go into action. You get the jackpot if you end up with three bells in a row.
Movement: GIRARD-PERREGAUX GPFAY08. 21,600 v/h. Power reserve: minimum 96 hours. 18k pink gold case. Water-resistant to 30 metres. Jackpot Tourbillon under gold Bridge. Availability limited.
