The Girard-Perregaux Free Bridge reimagines one of haute horlogerie’s most iconic designs through a bold, architectural lens. Liberated from convention, it translates the maison’s signature “Bridge” aesthetic into a contemporary statement of transparency, symmetry, and technical finesse.

Set within a 44 mm stainless-steel case, the Free Bridge is defined by its openworked construction, exposing the rhythmic geometry of its in-house GP01800 automatic movement. Floating bridges and layered mechanics form a visual interplay of depth and light, while the skeletonized architecture bridges the brand’s storied past and its avant-garde future.

A domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating offers a panoramic view of the movement’s complexity, complemented by a sapphire exhibition caseback that reveals the heavy-metal oscillating weight and meticulous hand-finishing. The black calfskin strap, paired with a steel triple-folding buckle, anchors the watch in understated elegance.

Driven by the self-winding GP01800 caliber, the movement operates at 4 Hz (28,800 vph) and delivers a minimum 54-hour power reserve, maintaining the precision and refinement expected from Girard-Perregaux’s 230-year watchmaking legacy.
