Notes

Girard-Perregaux, Gyromatic Gyromatic is the name used by Girard-Perregaux for its own bi-directional self-winding movement. First launched in 1957, with a 39 jewels movement, it was periodically improved upon until in 1965 the Manufacture came out with the first high-frequency Gyromatic movement with an oscillating rate of 36,000 vibrations per hour, the calibre 32 A "Chronometer HF", a revolution at this time.
