Girard Perregaux Quartz NOS First Production Quartz watch (SOLD)



Im parting with my personal collection
here i have 2 iconic GP quartz watches, cal 352

In the mid 1960's GP hired an electronics expert Georges Vuffray to develop a quartz clock and later miniaturize the technology into a wrist watch case. With help from Motorola who produced the chip, GP managed to present their prototype Elcron at the 1970 Basel Fair.
The GP movement was less complex than the Beta21 and the applied quartz frequency of 32.786Hz proved to be optimal. Until today this frequency and stepping motor technology is a World standard!

This is the watch that forever changed the standard of the Quartz watch. a truly revolutionary and iconic piece


100% original and keeping accurate time.

    Thanks for the information.
