One of my dad's friends gave me (as in FREE) a vintage GIRARD PERREGAUX (Quartz).
Needless to say that I have ABSOLUTELY no idea about this watch manufacturer

Anyone have a clue of its value? Age?
Any help will be appreciated

Roff may (will probably) know something. A very good place to start anyway :wink:

Good luck!

This is a classic, slim GP....I will wear it the next time I put on a suit....
On second thought, I will stick with my Chronomat Evo

I LOVE VARIETY!!!

Sorry - I'm out.

Quartz era is not an area that I foucs on, and GP is not a brand that I pay much attention to. I may have seen one like it before, but if I have it hasn't stuck.

They make some really nice pieces...

Also they seemed to produce their own quartz movements:

"Laureato - Steel and gold chronometer, 1975. Quartz movement. Octogonal bezel and integrated bracelet. Created in the mid-70's to house the new quartz movement developed by GIRARD-PERREGAUX R&D."
