"PERSONAL POCKET PIECE" - "...The multi-purpose 17-jewel Pocket Watch".

A stunning and rare timepiece in pristine condition, this is a vintage Girard-Perregaux "Personal Pocket Piece" pocket watch dated from 1964. Without doubt, a perfect example of timeless tradition of innovation from Girard-Perregaux.
 
It is a manual wind pocket watch powered by a mechanical movement, 17 jewels, sweep second, Swiss made.

"...This watch has been made to the same exacting standards which have brought world-wide acclaim to Girard Perregaux during its 173 years os watchmaking. Thought ultra-modern in design, the sleek contours of the Personal Pocket Piece are reminiscent of the small pieces of jade the ancient Chinese called "tranquilizing stones". When you feel the smoothing satin-smooth surface of your new watch you'll appreciate the quieting effect produced by the jade as it was held and rolled between the fingers during periods of stress."
  
Still super clean, this watch has the original champagne dial featuring gold hour markers, minute track and gold matching hands. The dial is also signed with the Girard-Perregaux name/logo.
 
It has a round ultra thin case shape with sleek contours design, all in 10K yellow gold filled. Water and shock-resistant.

Vintage watches are traditionally smaller than today's watches. Men’s watches typically measure between 29-36mm wide (some larger, some smaller) excluding the crown. In the listing details we typically try to do our best to list all pertinent dimensions of a watch. If you don't see it, or we failed to do so, please reach out to us. Women’s watches from the 1900s-1970s were also much smaller than today's offerings. Please also feel free to ask any questions you have pertaining to size.
 
We prefer to shoot photographs outside when weather is permitting. However, when we shoot indoors, please be aware that we shoot our photographs inside of lightboxes that are lit with 360 LED bulbs. This indeed magnifies any flaws. Usually, they are much less obvious to the naked eye. Having said that, we never photoshop any of our photography, remove blemishes, etc. We adjust lighting when necessary, but what you see is what you are getting, and we take pride in that.

The condition is pre-owned.
The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear but is fully operational and functions as intended.
Please review the photos and feel free to ask any questions you may have.

It will be carefully packed.
