Do not forget GP is haute horlogerie (high art of watchmaking), Rolex is not. The mechanism can be contemplated on the back of this watch, and is very beautiful. I love rolex watches, but they spend lots of money in marketing and masses craving for them make them less accessible to retail value. Their marketing propaganda (Rolex) had been excellent for decades, just take a look on who sponsors Roland Garros, and other grand slams for Tennis/Golf and other sports. Rolex watches are very durable, extremely reliable, but not (and anyone can take a look to this statement): not haute horlogerie, unlike GP. GP used to produce mechanisms for AP and VC, also GP are produced in-house, and they date back to 18th century as a brand. I think GP deserves more credit, and perhaps better marketing department, lastly their heritage in watchmaking history is a fact, and not an opinion.
this movement is not really haute horlogerie, I've also had several vintage GPs and they were rolex omega tier watches at best.
@@my2lwhat? do some research. GP is leagues above Rolex and Omega when it comes to a finishing and movement. I own Rolex but I don’t ever think to compare it to my GP’s
@@DD-hj3sj not when it comes to their basic movements, I wouldn't classify laureato as having a haute horology movement, the anglage is not hand finished and they don't even use a gold rotor, reliability has also been a concern in the past. High end GP like three gold bridges is a different story when it comes to finishing.
A beautiful looking watch. Without wanting to sound controversial, I would go so far to say it looks more stunning than any Rolex
Rolex is not a high end watch maker, it is purely mid range, like a BMW.
Finally a good review of this watch on youtube.
I bought yesterday the panda version, it’s simply perfect! I don’t know why ppl are limitate to see only AP and PP! Laureato is at the same level!
It most definitely is not, but is still a great timepiece 😇
Dear Niko, great watch. I bought the same watch brand new 3 yrs ago. loving it !
it's so comfortable to wear. so thin that it sits on my wrist perfectly. got me so many compliments. Laureate 42mm, blue dial, black dial and Grey dial are all beautiful. Congratulations Niko. great decison!!!
Unbelievable for how long people have overlooked it.
But theses times are over now.
Got my 38mm version unworn in 2019 for 4000 USD. Got now on the wishlist for the Infinity enamel version…
You made the right choice with this watch, soon everyone will want it
Girard Perregaux can outshine most of the Swiss watch brands ! If you buy a cherished second hand model you have a bargain to die for. Great watches and I have four.
This is getting hotter and hotter in Asian counties and starting to be quoted above retail now
Just order exact the same…..42mm blue dial. In my country (Belgium) there is only one official distributor in the capital of Bruxelles. The sales manager told me I will have to wait until December to get it and that period is growing every day due to the fact that people are coming into the store every day asking about the same watch. we will see on the long run where the the future of GP lays now they have left the Kering groupe and being completely independent. other hard to get brands are helping GP’s brand recognition by people looking for the next best thing. I was stunned to see it in real life, it’s a fantastic piece!
I would have a GP over a Rolex any day of the week. Superb purchase. Never been hung up on brand recognition because if you know, you know, and in my book GP is up there.
Happy to see more people notice GP.
Im getting mine soon
I got the sliver dial on the same day as you did haha. I love this watch and expecting this will pop in future like AP and PP.
I think for your watch poll this wasnt the highest but i picked it. I think it looks great!
Love this Watch
The case and movement finishing is exquisite 😍.
I like it more than the AP. It has the 100m water resistance and a way more comfortable and better finished bracelet. Personally own the silver dial version.
Amaizing video with briefing history and details of watch
a few months ago, (before the Aston Martin partnership was announced) I was able to get mine for 25% of retail from a local jeweler that had some existing inventory! they actually still have a couple pieces that are discounted right now.
What jeweler
@@wkdsid Diamond Cellar in Dublin Ohio... i think they still have a world timer, a ladies Luareto with diamond bezel and some others
You can get one at the greys in singapore for 30 percent discount BNIB. I think people still prefer AP. Even vacheron 4500v is dumping in prices.
Damn I got this same watch lightly used (slider condition) for 50% off msrp before tax
Moin Niko!
Congrats on another heavy hitter in your collection. I have putted the watch on my list a while ago. But I never had the chance to try it on. Just from the look of it, it’s similar to my ML Aikon or the B&M Riviera. But of course the movement and the overall finish distinguishes the Laureato as a luxury timepiece. The titanium version would be a nice one too. I like the date at 6 better that at 3 o’clock. But with its 44mm it might have an even bolder wrist presence.
I wonder if it is still possible to get a decent discount on the watch. But I’m afraid that even GP watches are harder to get nowadays…
Gets really hard now :(
Awesome piece, my only concern would be getting a good fit with no micro adjustments, in between links would be so annoying
Stunning GP. Love GP!
Congratulations on yet another great purchase. This is a beautiful timepiece! I picked up mine a few months ago and I absolutely love it.
Good purchase Niko
It’s a beautiful watch, but reminds me to much of an AP. With that said, I do like it. Wear it in good health 🍻
great wristshot.. imo this is a watch that looks the best wearing snugly on the wrist instead of loosely
I got the full black ceramic one last year! The watch is amazing
VERY IMPRESSIVE, TIMEPIECE.
Now available on secondary market at 50 pct of the new watch price. I was shocked when I checked
Congratulations! Enjoy it!
I dont like heavy boxes since it makes travelling really hard with them, especially for the professional working all around the world.
Should go for the Santos first, history, movement and look hands down against Loreato. Personal preference I supposed..
Nico, congratulations! Beautiful watch, Haute Horology, add’s diversity to your collection!
Congratulation my friend it is gorgeous I love it enjoy my friend enjoy
Congratulations! Beautiful watch that has definitely grown on me over the last few years since it's release. I think GP is under rated in general, and the Laureato while it ma not be the most unique design it is executed very well, and in their own way.
nice watch. i noticed that the hands are exactly the same as the FC highlife though
Yes Love
Very nice. A lot of people will likely turn to GP now due to the issues with AP and VC - will no doubt be trading over retail soon.
Great video, thank you. The watch looks tight on you though - it’s pinching your skin. Did you adjust this?
What’s the red strap on your keys called?
Such a nice watch.
Surprised that the score was lower than the Zenith Defy Classic. Which would you.pick?
The Zenith defy classic is even better in my view (old one), less high horology feeling, but more innovative design with nice features and an incredible good looking bracelet
@@TheDubaiExpat thanks for sharing your feedback. Your review of the Zenith definitely sold me on it XD
Great Watch! Very very nice review. Well done!
Always “Pool Party” 😂
Congratulations for this unique and stunning watch. I love the watch design and the butterfly system is so secure( I own one on my roamer classic) congratulations
Thank you bro :)!
@@TheDubaiExpat with all my best. You know I'm supporting you cause helping like this are just my contribution to the community of watch lovers
@@TheDubaiExpat what do you think of all the recent hype over the laureato? All ADs sold out. 2 year wait. Going to follow what happened with VC and make some dramatic gains on the grey market ?
A good investment watch perhaps?
Stick with the base models 42 mm blue etc or get a limited edition? All ok the grey market of course but much more adorable than an AP, PP, VC ... for now ... ?
Absolutely gorgeous watch and man I really love the box
I’m trying to decide between this and the Zenith Defy Skyline (both with blue dials)
GP, 100% much better. Just look at both movements.
@@TheDubaiExpat I agree ☝️. I was at Cellini here in NYC, and I held them side by side. They are both excellent watches, but as my AD said, “you get more out of the GP. There is a reason why this one costs $5k more, but the Zenith is also great. Do you want to pay $5k more for those details?”
it says "1791 "on the dial, the year of Mozart's death.... and you can hear some mozart in the background. hmmm.
Now i know where the Victorinox INOX takes its inspiration from, especially the blue dial automatic INOX.
Cant buy them in Dubai now. Mad, last September big discounts were there but they wernt quiet big enough to stop me worrying about taking a 40% haircut if I wanted to move it on
Great watch!! 👍👍👍
whats your wrist size?
Great review! The only watch I currently have is a 41 sub no-date and am looking for something completely different.... Wondering if you could tell me how the GP compares to the sub in terms of Robustness? Is it scratched or dinged easily ( obviously the polished center links are more prone to scratches) like say a Cartier, or does it seem to be more resilient like a Sub? keep up the great work....
Hey, I just used it today. The watch is pretty robust, as you said the center links will scratch. Same like on a datejust or GMT with oyster bracelet. GP is great value for money with a beautiful movement inside. Can fully recommend it.
Love this watch. I need to get one. Hopefully available in the UK?
Congratulations once more! It’s is definitely a stunning piece.
I texted you in IG but I guess you have not seen it. So I am curious to know about the precision of the movement. I know the brand has a long history and heritage behind it. However I have never owned one and don’t know anyone who does. I reserved the 42 laureato black dial and should be receiving it any day now. I own a Rolex DJ and the movement is superbe, and it mentions on the website +/- 2 sec accuracy. I have a Bvlgari as well and the movement is pretty good. GP on the other hand doesn’t say anything about that. I know you have only had it for such a short period of time, but what do you think?
There's nothing to doubt about the watch's accuracy with its long history in watchmaking. You can send it back to GP to regulate the watch should it not be operating within its limits
Mine was running faster (ca. 5 spd) during first 4weeks. Now it’s less than -0.5spd
@@BattelloStefano Hi Stefano! Thanks a lot for replying. I received my watch! I am sort of experience the same, mine is almost 3 weeks old now. At first the movement was not very accurate and was running faster than usual but it seems that it is adjusting now. I’ll give it some more time I am sure it will run perfect! Overall I am extremely happy with the watch tbh.
Great revue! Does the Laureato feature a jumping date change? Gruß aus Warszawa.
Well designed watch. Beautiful dial. Open numbers on the date display is a nice touch.
Congrats on the new purchase my man! Sweet piece 🔥🔥
At the 11min11sec video marker is a beautiful macro shot but is that glue along the edge of the minute track/plate? What is that??? Perhaps it’s just a shape of the dial and the little pyramids but it kind of looks like glue being squeezed from underneath the minute markers. Can you please take a closer look and share your explanation to what is it that we see there? Next to a date window along the dial plate/ridge. Thanks for explaining if you can. Love your channel and great reviews!
it most def is not glue. I have the watch as well. Just looked at it via a Loupe - the edge of the date window has a flowing texture around it. There is no glue being squeezed out...... GP stands for quality - its not an AliExpress purchase!
@@koochie88 ha! ha! ( AliExpress lol!) Thank you very much for taking the time and inspecting your watch - I am about acquire the black dial laureato!
I was hunting for the smaller 38mm version for months. No luck lol
discontinued
@@TheDubaiExpat yep, sadly.
@@elboogy hey do you have source for this ? Because i just bought a 38mm from my ad lol ref 81005
@@DanzeyGFX no sorry,
GP just re-introduced the 38mm but only in a copper dial. I imagine they will release more coñor ways in the near future.
Looks like an AP & Patek.
The Laureato was actually released before the Nautilus.
Good designation
What a stunning watch, big congrats! I think the Laureato is definitely an overlooked piece of fine timepiece that’s only recently coming to the fore. The shot of it next to your Kermit (a stunner itself) really shows how beautiful the Laureato really is. I think it is without a doubt the best value in haute horologie sports watch right now. It is already out of stock at all the major dealers in the Western US, and will be much more highly valued in the market in the coming days. You’re a lucky man, congrats again!
Love this piece
Congratulations, what a perfekt watch
Lovely piece!
The Laureato continues to fly under the radar; as most are fixated on the APs, the PPs and the VCs.
Regarding the 2 piece cushion, Personally I believe it’s a great design,
1 large size won’t accommodate the watch if and when a few or
many links are removed for a smaller wrist owner;
And a small cushion would be too small for the full bracelet or one that had a couple of links removed.
With the 2 piece design, it addresses both scenarios;
however you’re still stuck with where to put the larger sleeve if indeed your watch requires only the smaller cushion. 🤔😉
Great content 👍👍👍👍👍
You didn’t get a 30% discount??
How is this holding up in your collection? Getting wrist time? Im seriously considering this or the alpine eagle.
Yes, I love it. Would take it any day over the alpine eagle.
@@TheDubaiExpat Thanks my man! You've pushed me over the edge. Im going to pull the trigger
@@blairscott4678 man you will see what a Gem it is :)
It’s a beautiful watch but for the price value I don’t think it delivers in detail and quality. The hour and minute hands don’t reach the markers and in the macro lens you get dust and the indexes are not well polish and it doesn’t feel premium quality for a US 13.000 watch. I wouldn’t pay more than 8-9. Although like I said it’s a beautiful watch and you don’t see it everyday. Hope you enjoy it a lot.
I had one the rotor woble was to much for me had to sell ir
5:13 min - Why? 😂
Commedy🎉😂
How can I deliver the box to China ?
Most beautiful
How much is that & where can I buy one
from Seddiqi in Dubai. About 50,000 but wish list
Guys…do you think the new model will be as successful as this one ?!
better buy this one before the big price increase comes
Super Video

What‘s your wrist size?
6.5", medium size wrist I would say
Sprichst du Deutsch?
brutal
zenith skyline looks better
Those extravagant boxes kill me once you wear the watch you Never see the box give me a styrofoam box for all I care .
It might be a prestigious brand but honestly not my cup of tea. Does not look like a premium/luxury piece niether provides uniqueness. Desregarding price tag i would swap this watch with a DayDate in two seconds. Nice video though, Cheers
Same lol
I will swap too for a x3 watch
3rd
First
Always 💯😀
@@TheDubaiExpat mate one day i will buy Rolex in Dubai with you inşallah 🖐️
What an ugly piece crap. This watch is not even working properly.
Overhyped and too derivative
