This very pleasing and well-dimensioned vintage chronograph from the 1960s is in overall excellent condition. It still has the original Girard-Perregaux case back sticker. The original matte silvered dial with its two large, slightly sunk subdials is beautifully patinated, as is the luminous material in the hands. Over the years, some luminous dots have been lost, yet the dial with its blue tachymeter and red telemeter scales has retained its attractiveness. Housed in a 37 mm stainless steel case with round pushers, large for the time.
