Girard-Perregaux has paired the noble hues of the Laureato's case with a sumptuous handcrafted black onyx dial. This luxurious material draws on the expertise of time-served craftspeople who shape and polish the material by hand.

Creating thin dials from onyx requires no fewer than 15 different operations, however, the resultant surface looks exquisite with its mirror-like appearance.

The hands, baton-style indexes and GP logo, positioned at 12 o’clock, are presented in warm golden tones. The marriage of deep black onyx and pink gold accents delivers a becoming contrast, a characteristic linked with the Laureato name.
