Why is the Girard-Perregaux Laureato Still Underrated?

[@ID-Guy]

Having experienced a few of these in the wild, I can confirm they are amazing. Built solid, slim in profile with gorgeous dials. So why do you think this watch is still underrated next to its contemporaries? Is it because the design lacks any key defining features? Is it because of the Grey Market prices? Or is it simply because in an over-saturated market of integrated sports watches, the Laureto has been lost in the sea of competitors? 🥃

Tried on the 42mm blue dial Laureato and immediately fell in love with it. Looking forward to owning it one day. Not as an investment, not as a flex, and not because more people are talking about it now. It put a smile on my face when I had it on my wrist and I definitely would get in the future just because I really like it!

[@Adster275]

I own a VC overseas dual time and a grey-dial Laureato 42mm. I love both, but I find it hard not to choose the GP when choosing between both. The VC has a more faceted finish, a more interesting movement, and a slightly higher level of overall quality. The GP has a pull that I can't really quantify; it could be the thinness, it could be the way it hugs the wrist, or it could be just the overall package. I love it.

[@ID-Guy]

The thinness won me over Adam, must say the chrono that I experienced was a full package AND so subtle it wouldn't even be noticed twice. Thank you for sharing this brother. Always interesting to hear how two opposites compare! 🥃

I got my Blue GP Laureato early this month and i love it… it is the most comfy watch in my collection with a silky smooth bracelet…. The GP has the history and the exclusivity making only 12000 watches per year. The quality is amazing with hand finished movement etc … personally you get a lot for the money compared to other brands at that price point…

[@Konsaliki]

A very respectable watch that I've never paid much attention to. That's why I had no idea that it's been around for so long. Thanks for educating me. However, I'm glad I got myself a Maen Manhattan 37. Cured me from lusting after an integrated bracelet sports watch. For now.

[@ID-Guy]

The integrated watch scene is out of control 😆 Actually blows my mind how many there are today... must be getting near to 100 now at least? Madness! 🥃

[@kylewinter2297]

This, along with the Tudor Pelagos, is the watch that got me into watches about five years ago. My boss at the time had a Laureato and it was mesmerizing. He gave me the history of the watch and it was the first time that I’d heard someone so enthusiastically describe a watch’s provenance. I agree that this watch is underrated and I’m so glad you made such a wonderful video detailing the piece!

[@ID-Guy]

Two great pieces (that I'd happily own together) What a great story from your boss? Seldom times when something like that actually happens to us enthusiasts. Thank you for sharing Kyle! 🥃

[@joker14n]

And i am slowly realizing that the pelagos has been on the top of my list for like a year now..

[@balesjo]

The understated design of the Laureato is what attracts me to it. The thinner bezel without screws does not detract from some beautiful dials. I like the 38mm Copper dial, a beauty. The ultimate is the pink gold model with an onyx dial. A real killer look!

[@cdaack]

Pink gold with onyx dial is one of my grails 🏆

[@ToneyDouglas23]

I have a Royal Oak. Multiple Rolexes. And Im on the list for a Nautilus. I say that to say that I am 100% buying the new 38mm Laureato with the copper dial. I just want to see a review of one on youtube first and then see one in the flesh. GP makes some amazing watches.

[@WestCoastAce27]

Definitely very underrated. Which points out the level of snobbery currently too prevalent in our hobby. I love the white dial; we’ll see how 2023 goes. And if money were no object I’d get the rare Arabic numeral variant. You highlighted some very rare variants I’d never seen. Great job as always.

[@ID-Guy]

They are stellar. I tried the chrono (pictured at the end) and man, what a sleeper... so understated and built like a tank. A great point was made that these are not underrated BUT the others are highly overrated - very well said I thought 😆

[@ID-Guy]

Fascinating and thank you for sharing Ryan! Nothing cooler than hearing about preferences between pieces. How great is that 5712 though... gotta be my favorite dial. AND experienced a 15202 from back in the day. All stellar machines 😉 I understand why the AP would make the greatest dent 🥃

How you finding your GP after a year of ownership.

[@DavidDatura]

The Laureato has really grown on me of late. I never used to like them. But with the release of the versions with the gorgeous black onyx dials, and more recently the copper toned hobnail dial variant at 38mm (the perfect watch size for my tastes) they’re solidly on my radar now! If I could afford it (I can’t) the latter would be my everyday watch. But if I could design my own, I’d have it at said 38mm with a black onyx dial and formed of a pale 18 karat 1N yellow gold. As used on the Singer Reimagined Track 1 Geneva edition. Love that watch too! My grail chronograph.

Love the Laureato! Such a refined, elegant integrated design. Besides the skeleton dials, I think my favorite version is the pink gold/onyx dial variant...one of my grails. All of the Nautilus/Royal Oak comparisons are a bit unfair, when you consider that the Laureato Absolute Ti 230 clearly took it's design inspiration from Victorinox Inox. Another great video, thanks for sharing! My bottle of Talisker 10 is awaiting your livestream return to be opened LOL

[@anthonystevens8683]

I can't disagree with the comments made in this video. My personal watch preference tends to be skewed to the less outwardly more desirable or recognisable options. I prefer something that I can enjoy wearing on the wrist without the fuss in the knowing that I have a fine time piece that I'll not be judged on. I don't have a GP but would certainly consider one should I be able to justify it.

The 39mm version is beautiful. I never really got into the intergrated bracelet watches. Had an older AP with the JLC movement. Lovely watch but it never clicked for me.

Hopefully your a enjoy your well deserved glass of whisky 🥃

[@ID-Guy]

Must say, I've also experienced a lot of older AP RO's (and they've never hit the mark for me either) The newer ones really have stepped up their game BUT the GP's are so subtle, it's mad. Superb movements and built like tanks. Thank you as always Theo. Got back from a 6k run and decided to have a Glenmorangie 10 this evening (it's never a bad choice) 😉🥃

[@MrZanzibar123]

Great review of an overlooked watch. I suspect the price is just a little too high to get folks excited about a brand we don't often see. (By the way, since you're an intelligent guy, you might want to google "begs the questions." It's not a synonym for "raises the question" but, instead, the name for a logical fallacy in which one smuggles in an answer to very issue allegedly being discussed, thereby rigging the outcome.)

[@ID-Guy]

Maybe that's what I was going for with "begs the question" 😉 (kidding) Thank you for this Ian. My turn of phrase does need some work. Sometimes these lil things slip by unnoticed so thank you for bringing the meaning of it to my attention 🥃

[@jimflynn5105]

GP is a pretty underrated brand in general but the Laureato has certainly picked up in value compared to a couple of years ago. Whether that is because it has become the RO alternative of choice or just because watches have seen a general price uptick is harder to say.

[@ID-Guy]

I need to cover more GP's in future - like the 3 Bridges. Thank you for sharing this about the interest in these Laureato's (it's probably a mixture of all sorts) - "Integrated" anything sells these days 😉

[@dominikjozepovic6457]

One for me underrated aspect of the laureato is the green and copper dial color. The green dial with its black hands is the best handeld green color dial. But the highlight is the new copper dial color. In my opinion we dont give the dial color of a watch not enough credit. Sometimes the color of the dial becomes the watch while everything like the case and finishing of the watch goes in the background. We see it the best with Rolex and patek. The tiffany blue dial will be one of the best remembered watches of patek. Rolex on the other hand has nicknames for the use of color in there watches (pepsi). That a simple color of the dial can make one watch iconic speaks of itself. But mybe im just bored of the black, white and navy options. I want some color in my life😂

[@ID-Guy]

Well said Dominik. Actually pretty amazing seeing how some colours make a greater dent than others. Example: I can't imagine owning a Pelagos that isn't blue 😉AND one day, adding a green dial and white dial to my collection will be on the cards. Colour is highly underrated 😆🥃

GP are no longer accepting people onto their waiting list for the laureato, given the incredible interest over the last 12 months. My experience is that people are slowly wising up to this brilliant watch. In 2021 it was readily available and cost around £6000. Now unavailable and cost a few thousand more. Grey market they go for £12k In one afternoon I tried the 5711, the jumbo Royal Oak the laureato and the Glasshutte seventies panorama date. The GO was actually my favourite and that’s the one I wear now. The GP was a close second Cheers boykie great watch to review

[@jameshoward9700]

Yep, a beut! I prefer it to the Nautilus, but not the RO. I'm a huge fan of it's brushing on case and bezel and the clean dial though I'd say the 'GP' at 12 is heavy handed. Size-wise, I think it's a bit big/small. But that seems to be the strategy when wrestling the US/Asian consumer dichotomy. But no 'happy medium' is frustrating. As for others of this genre, I'm a fan of Parmigiani's Tonda GT and PF both bringing serious horology and finish to the party, combined with original, classically inspired style and unparalleled ergonomics.

[@ID-Guy]

Great point on the GP at the top. At least it's consistent, but you're right (it could be slimmer etc) - and man, that Tonda... It was one of my favorites from last year (everyone laughed at me 😆) This space is so saturated with Integrated models it's hard to keep up! 🥃

Is it so underrated or are/(were?) others hyped to ridiculous secondary prices. If you bought the standard three hander for retail (is that hard to do?) you could get a higher percentage of your money back than someone who swallowed the grey market hype on the RO, Nautilus, and Overseas and bought at the top. Ignoring all the secondary pricing madness that took place I think it holds its place well. I'd certainly consider it at retail before I paid a similar price for 41mm Datejust with Jubilee and WG bezel on the grey market. That's presuming Datejust prices don't fall back to pre pandemic levels. Myself I think if the Rolex dam bursts it will show first in Datejust prices but that's going off at a tangent.
