Laureato 38mm "Copper" Dial 81005-11-3154

The Story

Introduced in 1975, in the decade of the integrated-bracelet sports watch, the Girard-Perregaux Laureato established an iconic aesthetic defined by its octagonal bezel resting seamlessly on a circular ring. Reference 81005-11-3154 captures the essence of the collection in its most requested modern footprint: a 38mm unisex case crowned with a radiant "Copper" dial. Not merely a static colorway, this intricate guilloché surface reacts dynamically to ambient lighting, transitioning effortlessly from golden ochre in direct sunlight to deep, velvety cognac and rich espresso in evening light. It represents a sophisticated, independent statement piece that stands toe-to-toe with the finest Holy Trinity sports watches.

The Craft: 38mm Steel Architecture & In-House Calibre GP03300

The 38mm stainless steel case showcases an interplay between satin-brushed planes and mirror-polished bevels. Its signature octagonal bezel sits atop a rounded base, flowing directly into the integrated stainless steel H-link bracelet with high-polish center links.

The Copper dial is adorned with a fine "Clous de Paris" (hobnail) pyramid texture that scatters light across the surface. The dial is punctuated by applied, faceted black-PVD/rhodium-finished baton markers and baton hands filled with Super-LumiNova, balanced by a color-matched date aperture at 3 o'clock.

Turn the timepiece over to admire the mechanical mastery through the sapphire exhibition caseback: the Manufacture Girard-Perregaux Calibre GP03300. Comprising 218 hand-finished components and 27 jewels, this ultra-thin automatic engine beats at 28,800 vph with an approximate 46-hour power reserve. The movement is embellished with circular Côtes de Genève on the bridges, circular graining on the mainplate, blued screws, and a heavy pink gold-toned oscillating weight. Supported by a screw-down crown, the case provides a dependable water resistance rating of 100 meters (330 feet).
