Catalogue Essay
- The partnership between Girard Perregaux and Ferrari was born in 1993 when Gino Macaluso, owner of Girard Perregaux, and Luca di Montezemolo, president of Ferrari, reconnected through jeweller Gianni Bulgari. The two had met years earlier as young rally drivers competing in a Fiat Abarth 124 Spider, sharing a deep passion for design, performance, and precision.

- Their collaboration launched the “Girard Perregaux Pour Ferrari” collection, beginning with the ref. 9015—a self-winding split-seconds gold chronograph limited to 499 pieces, which featured the iconic “Cavallino Rampante.” It quickly sold out, leading to the creation of three more references: 8020 (chronograph), 8025 (time and date), and 8030 (time only), with many variations in metals and Ferrari-themed dial colors.

- The present ref. 8020 features a striking yellow gold case paired with a captivating deep blue dial, accented by gold numerals and crisp white hands. Preserved in excellent condition, this elegant yet sporty combination makes it an ideal companion for a refined Sunday drive.

Girard Perregaux

Swiss | 1791
Celebrating its 225th anniversary in 2016, the company earned its fame as the first vertically integrated Swiss watchmaking company, manufacturing high-grade movements, cases and dials within its premises. Particularly noteworthy are the brand's three-gold-bridge tourbillon pocket watches built by Constant Girard beginning in 1867 — considered amongst the most beautiful movement architectures ever made. An active participant in Switzerland's observatory chronometry competitions, the brand won so many precision awards that they were excluded from competing in 1901.

Key models include nineteenth and twentieth century pocket watches with three gold bridges, modern tourbillon wristwatches with three gold bridges, minute repeating pocket and wristwatches, as well as sport watches such as the Laureato and Sea Hawk.
