With three gold bridges, the brand’s unique Tourbillion transformed bridges from a purely technical element into an integral part of the design. A captivating, high-tech timepiece, the Neo Bridges models remain faithful to the DNA of Girard-Perregaux, continuing the brand’s bold tradition of making the invisible visible. The first ever skeleton version of the Neo Tourbillon with three bridges, this model makes light of gravity, mass, and opacity, proudly asserting the relevance of the brand’s approach to design, watchmaking, and style.
