GIRARD-PERREGAUX pour FERRARI F300

Hi Guys,

My latest addition, wrestled from my friend who was in a bit of a pickle, and hopefully a step on the ladder closer to me getting a Sub or SD.

It's a year 2002 model. 38mm case. The movement on the second hand is a beauty to behold.

Just thought I share the love and show off my poor photgraphy skills

Nice
Do you own a Ferrari?

Sorry, I have never understood buying a watch that's made for a car company.
Would be nice if you bought a Ferrari and they gave you one but otherwise you are paying to advertise for them more or less.

I almost bought a Panerai Ferrari and then passed, glad I did as it seems rebranded watches are tough for resale.

BUT if you like it thats all that matters... The other is just my worthless two cents.

If you want a Sub save your money and just buy the sub....

It's a superb looking watch from a fine fine brand.

Certainly not a ND wannabe by any means.

Sorry if my message came off wrong.

I love GP as well and think they are amazing....

Its just the paying a company like Ferrari to put their name on the dial
irks me.....

As I said I am very glad your happy with it and thats just my worthless .02 cents.

As I said, I don't know why you don't just save for the sub though as now is the time to buy.... You will NEVER regret owning the sub!!!
