Girard-Perregaux Richeville Chronograph "Monte-Carlo 1954"

The Richeville Chronograph "Monte-Carlo 1954" is a wristwatch by Girard-Perregaux.

This chronograph with self-winding movement was released by Girard-Perregaux in memory of the Monte-Carlo Rally 1954.

The tonneau form of the housing, a timeless classic in the world of watches, suits well to this historical topic. The ivory-colored dial is provided with the inscription "MONTE-CARLO 1954", while on the caseback engravings with the license plate and the name of the winning car, Lancia Aurelia B20 GT, can be found, as well as the names of the two victorious drivers, Louis Chiron and Ciro Basadonna.

The watch was launched in a limited series of 250 pieces in steel and 50 in rose gold.
