Notes
Girard-Perregaux, ''Trois Ponts d'Or''. On March 25, 1884 a patent (No. 14919) was filed in the USA patent office stating: ?Be it known that I, Girard Perregaux of Chaux-de- Fonds, Republic of Switzerland, have invented and produced a new and original Design for a Watch-Movement, of which the following is a full, clear and exact description: ''In a watch movement the design for a bridge, consisting a bridge having a central annular portion, spreadout ends and bar-like portions between the said annular portions and ends, as shown''. The design proved to be one of the most successful watch movement designs ever. It has been used by Girard- Perregaux up to the present day. Their most prestigious watch, the 13''' wrist tourbillon uses the same design. The simple and bold yet elegant layout of the ''three bridge'' movement lends itself to the display of the tourbillon regulator.
