Sage Green
Sage – “It’s defined as ‘wise, especially as a result of great experience’, words that could be used to describe Girard-Perregaux. Indeed, having amassed much experience over the last 230 years, the manufacture has become known for its sagacity, making the choice of dial colour on the new Laureato Pink Gold Sage Green very apt.”

Ultramarine Blue
Ultramarine Blue – “can be traced back to the 4th millennium BCE and to the appearance of lapis lazuli. The name is derived from the Latin ‘ultramarinus’, meaning ‘beyond the sea’, a reference to the region of its origin. Ultramarine blue, sometimes called ‘true blue’, later became a defining feature of many Renaissance paintings; however, as it was incredibly expensive, artists used it sparingly. As its name suggests, the dial of the new Laureato Pink Gold Ultramarine Blue is executed in the sought after shade.”
