Description
This is an automatically translated text.
This original version of the Sea Hawk, in excellent condition, dates back to the Second World War. I acquired it second-hand in the USA some twenty years ago.

This is indeed a Sea Hawk, a model that has evolved considerably over the decades. It's not often you find a Sea Hawk in this condition these days. It has also undergone a thorough overhaul ("rhabillage complet") by a Master Watchmaker, who also fitted it with a new spring about a year ago.

Like the brushed stainless steel case and cover, Girard Perregaux's dial is in remarkably good condition. The photograph of the dial details reveals that the radium hands were probably originally blued, while the seconds hand is red. All are original.

The 17-jewel movement is obviously very clean, signed Girard Perregaux & Co Swiss gxm 071457. The inner cover is also signed Girard Perregaux and stamped with the eagle and anchor logo. It also mentions the existence of a patent and the qualification Acier Inoxydable 722. There are 5 watchmakers' signatures, including that of the Master Watchmaker who completely overhauled and cleaned it in 2023.

The Frisson brand bracelet is in leather; it is handmade, lightly padded and cognac-colored. It has already been worn but is in excellent condition.
