You would run the double risk of being too superficial and of overly condensing the story, a risk you just couldn\u2019t avoid. And yet that\u2019s exactly what\u2019s we are going to try to do because what we saw on a November day in La Chaux de Fonds deserves to be told. The pictures, more than any words we could write, are proof that no watch enthusiast, no true devotee, can remain indifferent. If you are among those who just follow the latest fashion then you can stop reading now, but it would be your loss. The history of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.girard-perregaux.com\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Girard-Perregaux\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Girard-Perregaux<\/strong><\/a> is the history of two very important figures in Swiss watchmaking, the first being Jean-Francois Bautte, born in 1772 in Geneva, watchmaker and jeweler who founded the Maison Bautte, a savvy businessman who inaugurated the maison by making the first watches in 1791:<\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\" lang=\"en-US\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Girard-Perregaux_Ateliers_1950-for-Horbiter.jpg\" rel=\"prettyPhoto\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Girard-Perregaux_Ateliers_1950 for Horbiter\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Girard-Perregaux_Ateliers_1950-for-Horbiter.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto;\" rel=\"prettyPhoto\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">The second person, and the one who gave his name to the Maison, is Constant Girard, born in 1852, founder of the maison \u201cGirard &amp;Cie\u201d, that will officially become <strong>Girard-Perregaux<\/strong> when Constant marries Marie Perregaux:<\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Marie-Perregaux-Constant-Girard-for-Horbiter.jpg\" rel=\"prettyPhoto\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Marie Perregaux &amp; Constant Girard for Horbiter\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Marie-Perregaux-Constant-Girard-for-Horbiter.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto;\" rel=\"prettyPhoto\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">This is the man who, in 1889, created the famous Tourbillon with three gold bridges, the \"Holy Grail\" of <strong>Girard-Perregaux<\/strong>, a watch awarded the gold medal at the Universal Exhibition of Paris:<\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Tourbillon-pocket-watch-with-Three-Gold-Bridges-for-Horbiter.jpg\" rel=\"prettyPhoto\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Tourbillon pocket watch with Three Gold Bridges for Horbiter\" class=\"aligncenter\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/www.horbiter.com\/media\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Tourbillon-pocket-watch-with-Three-Gold-Bridges-for-Horbiter.jpg\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto;\" rel=\"prettyPhoto\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\">In 1906, the Maison Butte and Girard-Perregaux merged, leading to the birth of the modern <strong>Girard- Perregaux<\/strong>, placing all the skills of watchmaking under one roof. Jump forward 80 years and <strong>Girard-Perregaux<\/strong> is once again in the forefront under the leadership of the Macaluso family. Walking through the various departments of the manufacture today, everything is more modern, with computers, numerical control machines, highly advanced tests for the latest technologies, all housed in the historic building of La Chaux de Fonds, and this is as it should be. But what has remained unchanged is the spirit and sobriety to which the <strong>Girard-Perregaux<\/strong> maison has accustomed us. No loud publicity campaigns for this brand, but rather sober marketing and communication strategies that fortunately have not yielded to the temptation of modern day fashion, and that are fully in accord with the spirit of a true Maison. Watchmaking: to observe the various steps that transform a simple steel billet in the case of the <strong>1945 Vintage<\/strong>, the <strong>Sea Hawk<\/strong> or the <strong>Traveller<\/strong> is fantastic, it\u2019s your watch that is coming alive:<\/p>\n<div style=\"min-height: 10px;
