| Rare Salmon Dial Charm – Girard-Perregaux Richeville The Girard-Perregaux Richeville stands out with its unique tonneau-shaped case, a design that flows elegantly with the wrist. Neither round nor square, its softly curved profile and polished finish give it a refined yet versatile presence. What makes this example truly special is its rare salmon dial, a color highly prized among collectors. Historically reserved for limited or special orders, salmon dials were produced in very small numbers. The warm, rosy tone changes with the light — soft and creamy at times, glowing with coppery depth at others — creating a dynamic beauty that silver or white dials simply cannot match. The dial layout is harmonious and balanced, with a bicompax design: running seconds at nine o’clock and a 30-minute chronograph counter at three. The applied Arabic numerals have a distinctive, slightly playful style, adding charm and character, while the fine minute track and inner scale reflect Girard-Perregaux’s attention to detail. Inside, an automatic chronograph movement delivers reliable performance, while the pushers offer a smooth, tactile feel. It represents an era when Girard-Perregaux blended Swiss tradition with modern design and everyday usability. As salmon dial chronographs grow ever more sought after, finding one in this condition has become increasingly difficult. This Richeville embodies rarity and elegance — a timepiece for collectors who appreciate subtlety, history, and timeless design. |
