The Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 is one of the most historically grounded and architecturally distinctive watches in the Swiss luxury canon. Introduced in the 1990s as a faithful homage to the brand's signature tonneau-shaped wristwatches of the 1940s, the Vintage 1945 collection takes its name and its form directly from that postwar golden era of Swiss watchmaking. The characteristic rectangular case with softly curved, almost cushion-like sides is instantly recognizable and sets the Vintage 1945 apart from the round-case conventions of most competitors.

Reference 25882-11-223-BB6B represents the XXL tier of the Vintage 1945 family, a designation that signals the most feature-rich and visually commanding configuration within the line. The 36mm stainless steel case is generously proportioned for the tonneau format, offering a confident wrist presence while remaining true to the vintage-inspired spirit of the collection. The steel case is finished to the exacting standards Girard-Perregaux has maintained across its 230-plus-year history in Le Locle.

The dial of this reference is one of its most compelling attributes. Sapphire indices and Arabic numerals coexist on the same face, a compositional choice that simultaneously reinforces legibility and adds a layer of visual richness and period authenticity. Two high-complication displays are integrated into the dial with characteristic Girard-Perregaux restraint: a large date aperture that presents the date in bold, easily read numerals, and a moon phase indicator that renders the lunar cycle with the romantic precision that only fine mechanical watchmaking can achieve. Together these complications make the dial a genuine showcase of horological craft.

Powering this timepiece is an automatic movement, a fitting choice for a watch that combines everyday wearability with complication depth. The Vintage 1945 XXL is paired with a leather strap that reinforces its dressy, heritage character, complementing the warm tonality of the dial and the polished steel surfaces of the case. The strap choice underlines that this watch is conceived as much for the boardroom and formal occasion as for the enthusiast's collection.

Acquiring an or fresh-stock example of a discontinued or limited Girard-Perregaux reference is an increasingly rare opportunity, and Bizak & Co. exists precisely to connect discerning buyers with exactly these finds.

FAQ

1. What makes the Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 XXL reference 25882-11-223-BB6B special?
This reference combines two meaningful complications — a large date aperture and a moon phase display — within Girard-Perregaux's iconic tonneau-shaped Vintage 1945 case, a design drawn directly from the brand's 1940s archives. The sapphire index and Arabic numeral dial adds a layer of visual sophistication that is rare even among dress watches at this level. It is a timepiece that rewards both the casual admirer and the dedicated horological enthusiast.

2. What movement powers the Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 XXL 25882-11-223-BB6B?
This watch is powered by an automatic mechanical movement, meaning it winds itself through the natural motion of the wearer's wrist. Girard-Perregaux has a centuries-long tradition of in-house movement manufacture in Le Locle, Switzerland, and the caliber within the Vintage 1945 XXL reflects that heritage. The automatic winding mechanism makes this complication-rich watch highly practical for daily wear.

3. What is the case size and material of reference 25882-11-223-BB6B?
The case measures 36mm and is crafted from stainless steel, giving this Vintage 1945 XXL a solid, refined presence on the wrist. The tonneau shape means the lug-to-lug dimension reads differently from a round watch of the same nominal size, often wearing larger and more dramatically. The steel construction ensures durability while keeping the overall aesthetic clean and versatile.

4. Is the Girard-Perregaux Vintage 1945 XXL suitable for everyday wear?
The Vintage 1945 XXL is primarily a dress and collection watch, best suited to formal, business, and special-occasion contexts rather than active or sports use. Its leather strap, delicate moon phase display, and refined dial design all point toward a more considered wearing environment. That said, its automatic movement and robust steel case mean it is fully capable of regular wear by a careful owner.

5. What does the dial look like on the Vintage 1945 XXL 25882-11-223-BB6B?
The dial features sapphire indices alongside Arabic numerals, a combination that lends the watch both legibility and a distinctive vintage-inspired aesthetic. Integrated into the dial are a large date window and a moon phase display, each executed with the understated elegance that defines Girard-Perregaux's design philosophy. The overall effect is a richly detailed but harmoniously balanced face.
