Girard Perregaux - A Brief History
A brief history
Girard-Perregaux was founded in 1856 when Constantin Girard married Marie Perregaux. Soon after, the company really made a name for itself when it unveiled at the Paris Universal Exhibition the masterpiece, “Tourbillon Sous Trois Ponts d’Or” (translation: Tourbillon with Three Gold Bridges). 154 years later, Girard-Perregaux is still intact. In 1993, Girard-Perregaux signed a co-branding arrangement with the celebrated Italian car manufacturer, Ferrari, which has yielded a remarkable line of sporty chronographs.
