Laureato Absolute Chronograph Aston Martin F1 Edition


Last year, Girard-Perregaux announced it was the official partner of British ultra-luxury performance car manufacturer Aston Martin and the Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant Formula One™ Team (AMF1). Since the organizations started working together, they have collaborated on two watches: the three-flybridge tourbillon Aston Martin Edition and the Laureto Chronograph Aston Martin Edition. Now, for the first time, Girard-Perregaux has teamed up with the AMF1 team to create a new model, the Laureato Absolute Chronograph AM F1 Edition, with two industry firsts. This groundbreaking watch combines two worlds, micro-mechanics and the extreme performance of Formula 1™.


Pushing the limits of performance In the competitive world of F1, just a fraction of a second can make or break. In addition to aerodynamics and engine power, weight is also very important, so the team is constantly researching new innovative materials that promise to provide valuable weight savings. In this case, the AMF1 team brought its astonishing understanding of lightweight materials to the world of haute horology.


The new Laureato Absolute Chronograph AM F1 Edition features a cutting-edge 44mm case. Its composition, which combines titanium powder and carbon elements taken from the two F1 cars used in the 2021 season, is a first for the industry. Using a high-tech manufacturing process, the individual components are brought together and mixed with pigmented resins. The resulting material has ductility superior to steel. Each watch has its own visual identity and looks different from any other timepiece on the market.


Patrick Pruniaux, CEO of Girard-Perregaux, said: "Working with Aston Martin has been a pleasure from the very beginning. It's not just a case of putting our name on a Formula 1 car. Instead, We collaborated on multiple projects that resulted in two very different watches. The collaboration resulted in some innovative and interesting ideas that culminated in the creation of exciting new products. This also led to a split between the people of the two companies Some beautiful friendships have formed. For our previous collaborative models, the focus was on style and elegance. With this latest watch, however, we seek to work closely with the brand's F1 team and focus more on the concept of performance."


Mike Krack, Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant Formula One™ Team Principal, added: "As a team, we have the determination to succeed - and that ambition requires us to analyse every element of our performance package. This includes managing what we use to manufacture The materials of the cars, measuring their weight and strength, all to find that crucial extra thousandth of a second in lap times. Girard-Perregaux is a valued partner in our organization and we work together to share and combine our knowledge to improve each other’s brands. The new Laureato Absolute Chronograph AMF1 is the first example of this collaboration and an amazing example of what we can accomplish together.”


Two world premieres, one extraordinary watch The Girard-Perregaux Laureato Absolute Chronograph AM F1 Edition features an industry-first 44mm highly innovative titanium and carbon fiber case. However, the creativity of the watchmaker also extends to the strap of this watch, further "world premiere". The GP rubber alloy shown in Aston Martin Racing Green is made from FKM rubber (FKM) and carbon from two Formula 1 cars used in the 2021 season. The process of creating this groundbreaking work is highly technical and requires specialized equipment. Furthermore, the manufacture of this technical watch band requires extensive research into the compatibility of the materials used. The resulting strap has excellent softness and abrasion resistance compared to conventional rubber. In this case, its look enriches the look of the fabric effect. button,


Aston Martin has always been synonymous with style and performance Born on the track 109 years ago, Aston Martin has always had a proud connection to racing. Over the years, he has participated in various forms of international competitions and achieved remarkable results. However, while performance is an important part of the brand's DNA, Aston Martin is recognized as an iconic global brand synonymous with style, luxury and exclusivity. Aston Martin has blended the latest technology, prestigious craftsmanship and beautiful styling to produce a range of critically acclaimed luxury models including the Vantage, DB11, DBS and DBX and its first supercar, the Aston Martin Valkyrie. This is celebrated with the new Girard-Perregaux Laureato Absolute Chronograph AMF1 Edition, which incorporates multiple design influences from the renowned ultra-luxury British brand.


The dial of the watch is rendered in sunny "Aston Martin Racing Green" with cross-hatching, a pattern that dates back to the Aston Martin "AM" badge from 1921. Many sports cars have hollowed-out components that provide structural rigidity while reducing mass. Additionally, the openings seen on several Aston Martins help with cooling. This new timepiece features skeletonized hands, giving the design a sporty touch. The hands of the chronograph feature a splash of lime to echo the design of the AMF1 race car. The weights on the central chronograph hand mimic the side panels widely used on many Aston Martin road cars. While the car's influence is obvious, some details are so subtle that only Aston Martin fans and people in the know can spot it.

As attractive as the Girard-Perregaux Laureato Absolute Chronograph AM F1 Edition is, a reliable powerplant is also a prerequisite for success. For the first time, the back of the Laureato Absolute Chronograph is equipped with a sapphire crystal. Now, the wearer can view the automatic Manufacture Calibre Calibre GP03300-1058.


The Aston Martin Aramco Cognizant Formula One™ team is based at Silverstone, England, close to the iconic circuit. With that in mind, the Girard-Perregaux Laureato Absolute Chronograph AM F1 Edition is limited to 306 pieces, with total distance drivers Lance Stroll and Sebastian Vettel aiming for race day at the 2022 British Grand Prix (5.891km x 52 laps).
