Calling all retro sci-fi fans: this is thewatchfor you. Girard-Perregaux says it is the final instalment for its Casquette 2.0, a 1970’s throwback with a vintage LED display.
This is the third version of the Casquette 2.0, which itself arrived in 2022 as a revival of the original Casquette, a watch that launched in 1976 to critical acclaim from a public in love with sci-fi blockbusters, space travel and the modernity of quartz-powered digital timepieces.
The latest iteration retains the wonderfully retro case design of the original Casquette, but this time uses Grade 5 titanium instead of steel, and features 18K yellow gold for the GP logo and pushers – a nod to its gold-plated ancestors of the 1970s.

It’s supplied on a matching titanium bracelet with a rubber lining for improved comfort. The titanium buckle is equipped with a micro-adjustment system that allows the wearer to fine-tune the size of the bracelet to create a perfect fit. Such systems are handy when your wrist size varies slightly as ambient temperature rises or falls.

Unusually, Girard-Perregaux says how the movement can be retrofitted to the original 1976 watch. GP says the move shows it’s “sidestepping obsolescence and making the Casquette one of the oldest serviceable quartz watches around today.”
