Bangkok Luxury Watches: A Bold Heritage Reimagined in Ultramarine Blue and Sage Green
Girard-Perregaux, one of Switzerland’s most respected horological institutions, has once again elevated its iconic Laureato collection with a striking new twist. Two fresh dial variations—Ultramarine Blue and Sage Green—have just made their debut in Bangkok, stunning local watch connoisseurs and collectors alike. These latest 42mm models in 18k pink gold continue a legacy of craftsmanship dating back to 1791.

The Laureato, introduced in 1975, is instantly recognizable by its harmonious fusion of geometric forms. Its octagonal bezel, mounted on a circular plinth over a tonneau-shaped case, remains a masterclass in bold design. This Bangkok Luxury Watches news report highlights how Girard-Perregaux has taken its classic silhouette and infused it with new life through updated dial hues and masterful detailing.
An Iconic Case Meets Exquisite Engineering
Inside the stunning pink-gold exterior lies the beating heart of the Laureato: the GP01800 calibre. This self-winding movement, comprising 191 finely finished components, showcases the brand’s unparalleled attention to detail. The bridges feature straight Côtes de Genève, the main plate is decorated with circular graining, and the pink-gold oscillating weight is engraved with circular patterns that mirror the watch’s refined aesthetics.
From mirror polishing to hand-bevelling, every element of this calibre reflects the expertise of centuries-old horology. The marriage between technical prowess and visual artistry defines what makes a Girard-Perregaux timepiece more than just a watch—it’s a piece of legacy on the wrist.
Dials That Dazzle with History and Depth
The newly introduced dials—Sage Green and Ultramarine Blue—offer more than just a pop of color. Sage Green pays homage to the wisdom and longevity of the brand, a sophisticated green that contrasts with previous green editions like the Laureato Eternity or the Aston Martin variants. Meanwhile, Ultramarine Blue invokes a deep historical resonance, dating back to ancient times when lapis lazuli pigment defined royalty and renaissance artistry.
Each dial features the signature ‘Clous de Paris’ hobnail pattern, requiring over 50 meticulous steps to create. This intricate texture brings a three-dimensional shimmer to the surface. Golden baton-style hands and indexes are filled with green-luminescent material, enhancing legibility without compromising elegance.

Small Details with Big Impact
The 3 o’clock date window is designed with thoughtful symmetry, set against a matching dial-colored disc—either sage green or ultramarine blue—making it almost seamless. The golden GP initials at 12 o’clock shine against the textured dial, while the brand’s logo just below adds the finishing touch in pristine white.
These newest Laureato iterations prove once again why Girard-Perregaux remains a formidable force in luxury Swiss watchmaking. With Bangkok as one of the premier markets for horological excellence, the unveiling of these exclusive timepieces is already creating buzz among collectors, retailers, and aficionados across Asia.
With its rich history, bold design ethos, and forward-thinking artistry, Girard-Perregaux has proven that reinvention is just as important as tradition. These two new dials do not just add new colorways—they add new chapters to a timeless story. For collectors in Bangkok and beyond, this is not just a release; it is a reminder that luxury is in the detail, and that refinement knows no era.
