At Baselworld 2014 watch exhibition, Girard-Perregaux unveiled the new member of its signature Cat’s Eye collection. The new Cat’s Eye 10th Anniversary watch, as its name suggests, celebrates the collection’s ten year anniversary with a gorgeous dial blanketed in shimmering, metallic rays.

The watch’s dial is shielded with a sapphire crystal, whereas the open case back shows a special “10th Anniversary” engraving. The case back also shows the in-house manufactured and assembled caliber GP03300 mechanical movement and its specially designed pink gold oscillating weight which is engraved with the letters “GP” to create a tapestry-like decor with pearlescent bridges and main-plate. The self-winding movement features hour and minute functions and it is capable to save enough power to keep the watch ticking for at least 46 hours. The impeccable caliber GP03300 oscillates at the rapid frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz). The watch is crafted to withstand water pressure of up to 30 meters (circa 100 feet).
