Audemars Piguet vs Girard Perregaux

Hello i want to buy for my lady a watch. she love these 2. the GP i have a special discount, while ap only normal discount. so the price of GP is lower due to higher discount.

my question is, which one should i choose? the AP is well known brand. While GP has bigger size and it has complication of world time. both are solid gold.

so i can conclude

Brand = AP
Models = Draw
Movement and Complication = GP
Price = GP


what do you guys think?

I prefer the dial on the AP. The GP is really nice too, but just a bit busy.

What's the price difference?

If it's not huge, I'd go AP, more prestigious, and I don't think most women care about complications, they probably won't end up using them or even setting the date.

I'd say neither of the two listed. How about this one:

You're buying a watch not a company, get the watch you like more
