After receiving so many requests from enthusiasts who love Girard-Perregaux watches, the brand has rolled out two new Laureato 38 mm pieces, a midnight blue variant and a green variant.

While Laureato dates back to the mid ‘70s, GP released different versions of this model into the market over the years due to the high demand. The Laureato pieces were so stylish that GP lovers couldn’t get enough of them.

According to Girard-Perregaux, “These new Laureato models wonderfully play with lines and curves.” Like the original 1975 models, both pieces have an octagonal bezel.

Featuring an angular tonneau-shaped case, this timepiece has an intriguing aesthetic accentuated by angular shapes and lines.

And thanks to the sleek and slim design, the watch sits perfectly on the wrist without taking up too much space.

Apart from the octagonal shape, most elements, such as the luminescent markers and button-type markers, are quite similar to those featured in the original Laureato piece.

While these two timepieces are fitted with similar elements, they have different aesthetic looks.

For starters, the sage green variant has a golden second hand, complementing a gold-like GP logo. The combination of these two colors highlights different elements of the watch.

Designed to display different hues, the sage green dial fluctuates between two different spectral hues—grey and green—when placed in different lighting.

On the other hand, the blue option is fitted with a silver seconds hand to create a beautiful contrast. Depending on the intensity of light, the blue dial might shift into a deeper dark blue from time to time.

Even though the Laureato 38 mm pieces have different hues, the two watches have the same price tag of $14,900.

Patek Philippe downsizes Cubitus collection to 40 mm
Two new Patek Philippe Cubitus watches in rose gold and white gold
Cubitus Reference 71281R-001

In 2024, the Cubitus collection made headlines as the first sporty collection from Patek Philippe in 25 years. Even though the collection was rolled out in late 2024, it has been downsized from 45 mm (large size) to 40 mm (medium size). Given that Patek Philippe is calling this the medium size, there’s also a high chance that they might unveil another Cubitus version later this year, a smaller size to complete the Cubitus collection.

While the 45 mm cubitus collection is available in three different options, the new size was rolled out in two options: Cubitus Reference 7128/1R-001 and Reference 7128/1G-001. The Cubitus Reference 7128/1R-001 features a rose gold casing, accentuated by a sunburst brown dial with gold hour markers covered by a white luminescent coating for enhanced visibility. The casing and bracelet are highlighted by a satin finish for that modern look.

This specific shade came from the night sky over the Vallée de Joux - the place the firm had its base for 150 years. After technical growth that spanned several years, staff put the color on ceramic cases and parts. This happened in both the Royal Oak and Royal Oak Offshore groups.
