A Discussion around Girard Perregaux and the still highly underrated Laureato. The world of Integrated Bracelet Sports watches is Saturated. Any watch for any price can be found with this design and aesthetic (which dilutes the potency of the concept) When looking at models like the AP Royal Oak, PP Nautilus and VC Overseas as examples, the Laureato does not have key defining features that allows it to stand out. Simple compared to their contemporaries, but surprisingly they still haven't caught on.
