Skeletal watchmaking reduces each component to its essential form, and the Laureato Skeleton embraces that discipline with striking results. The manufacture caliber GP01800-0006 is stripped of superfluous material, presenting its intricate architecture openly — including the four-heart oscillating balance that appears at 12 o'clock and a 54-hour power reserve driving the automatic movement.
The 42 mm round case is crafted from 18k rose gold, standing 10.88 mm tall and water-resistant to ten bar. A fixed 18k rose gold bezel frames the white dial, protected by scratch-resistant sapphire crystal. Luminescent rose gold-tone hands and luminescent index hour markers ensure legibility, while the rose gold bracelet fastens securely with a folding clasp.
This example is dated 2020 and comes complete with its original box and papers, making it a well-documented example of Girard-Perregaux's openworked craft.
