Girard-Perregaux Steel Gents Watch specialpricing This is a current-collection timepieceGirard Perregaux has a rich tradition of excellence in watchmaking that is unfortunately often over looked by vintage collectors, in part due to their contemporary "bleh" factor. Looking past their contemporary offerings, you'll find that their roots go back to the late 18th century, when Jean Franois Bautte first opened his shop in La Chaux du Fonds. In 1856, watchmaker Constant Girard married Marie Perregaux and established Girard Perregaux et Cie.
