TRIBUTE TO ENZO FERRARI
To celebrate ten years of fruitful collaboration and to match the Enzo Ferrari model, the designers at the Girard-Perregaux Manufactory created a master timepiece whose manifold technical and aesthetic details perfectly harmonizes with the extreme concept of Formula 1.
One look at the case back reveals the totally revived version of the highly coveted Tourbillon with three gold Bridges movement. The gold of the Tourbillon's emblematic three arrows makes a vivid contrast with the plate, whose surface has been skillfully hand-guilloched with circular pattern. The barrel-drum is decorated with a motif from the Enzo engine that only the most astute of connoisseurs will recognise.
