DescriptionThe Girard-Perregaux Minute Repeater Tourbillon with Bridges, reference 99820-53-002-BA6A, is a testament to haute horlogerie, boasting a symphony of intricate mechanical components housed within a 45mm white gold case. Its most striking feature is the skeletonized dial, which eschews a traditional face to expose the mesmerizing dance of the minute repeater and tourbillon mechanisms. The absence of a dial not only showcases the technical prowess of the movement but also creates a visually stunning spectacle. The watch is powered by the hand-wound mechanical caliber GP09500-0005, a marvel of micro-engineering with 406 individual parts meticulously assembled and finished by hand. This caliber, beating at a frequency of 21,600 vibrations per hour (3 Hz), features 37 jewels and offers a power reserve of at least 60 hours. The movement's intricate workings, visible through the sapphire crystal caseback, are a testament to Girard-Perregaux's commitment to traditional watchmaking techniques.

Measuring a substantial 15.91mm in thickness, the watch wears its complexity with pride. The white gold case is paired with an alligator leather strap secured by a white gold triple-folding buckle, ensuring both comfort and security on the wrist. Despite its intricate mechanics, the watch offers a water resistance of 30 meters, providing protection against accidental splashes and brief immersion. The Girard-Perregaux Minute Repeater Tourbillon with Bridges is a limited edition masterpiece, with only 30 pieces produced. Each watch is a unique work of art, a testament to the brand's heritage and expertise in horology. The reference number 99820-53-002-BA6A is engraved on the caseback, signifying its exclusivity and rarity.
