Traditional watches typically feature a round dial that displays time denoted by the hour and minute hands, so the innovative Casquette broke all-new grounds when it was first unveiled back in 1976. Girard-Perregaux only produced 8200 pieces from 1976 to 1978, and thanks to its unique time display, it has become a collector’s item for those who love owning a watch with a difference.

Following the success of its one-of-a-kind Casquette Only Watch Edition together with Bamford Watch Department to raise funds in support for Duchenne muscular dystrophy research, Girard-Perregaux officially launched the brand-new Casquette 2.0 on 22 February 2022.

The maison has brought back the iconic silhouette on a scratch-resistant ceramic case with Grade 5 Titanium caseback, and you can look forward to the new Calibre GP03980 quartz movement as well.

Other nifty inclusions include the month, year, chronograph and second time zone, in addition to the standard hours, minutes, seconds, day and date of the classic Casquette. It’s also improved with ‘on-demand’ time to prolong the battery lifespan, and the new ceramic bracelet will sit ergonomically on your wrist for maximum comfort all day long.

The Girard-Perregaux Casquette 2.0 is limited to just 820 pieces, and you can find them at The Hour Glass which is the exclusive retailer of Girard-Perregaux in Singapore, priced at SGD6500 each.
