The Girard-Perregaux Three Golden Bridges Tourbillon Ref. 99285 is the pinnacle of horological artistry, combining modern architectural movement construction with traditional watchmaking. As a contemporary interpretation of the maison’s historic Three Bridges design, this reference showcases the movement as both functional mechanism and aesthetic centerpiece, solidifying Girard-Perregaux’s place in the world of haute horlogerie. Housed in a 40mm 18k rose-gold case, the watch emphasizes transparency and symmetry. The hallmark three parallel gold bridges support the movement components, including the tourbillon cage, mainspring barrel, and gear train, creating a visually stunning linear architecture. The sapphire crystal on both front and back offers unobstructed views of the movement from all angles, highlighting the intricate finishing and mechanical artistry. This masterpiece of watchmaking is powered by an in-house Caliber GP9600-0001, a manual-wound movement featuring a one-minute flying tourbillon, central time display, and approximately 60 hours of power reserve.
