The Girard-Perregaux 1966 automatic is an 18k red gold dress watch. The watch cuts the classical profile of a formal watch thin. It is just 10mm thick while measuring 40mm around the case not including the crown. 

The watch does have good heft because of the red gold case. It sits on a beautiful dark navy blue strap with semi-conforming spring bars. These bars allow the watch to look integrated on the wrist while still allowing the strap to bend straight downwards around a smaller wrist. 

The watch is all about the sunburst blue dial. It has just enough bezel to form a red-gold halo aroudn the sunburst. The grain radiating out from the center pinion gives the sunburst pattern a generous amount of re-activity in the light. The hands have plenty of span to extend across the dial. 

The caliber 4500 is a modern caliber from Girard-Perregaux. It fills the entire caseback of the watch and includes a much larger mainspring barrel than previous movements. When you pull the crown, you can see that it stops the seconds hand allowing for precise time setting.
