Girard-Perregaux’s Sea Hawk has a notable history that dates back to the 1940s, originally designed as a military-grade timepiece built for durability and precision. Over the decades, the model underwent several transformations, culminating in the modern interpretation we recognize today. The 1989 redesign brought a more robust case and improved water resistance, while the 2002 update introduced an avant-garde aesthetic that laid the foundation for its 2012 successor. The present watch is a rare and highly sought-after limited edition Sea Hawk, created in tribute to the BMW Oracle Racing team for the 32nd America’s Cup. One of only 1 000 pieces produced, it is a true collector’s timepiece, celebrating the collaboration between Girard-Perregaux and the Golden Gate Yacht Club. Encased in stainless steel, its robust 44 mm case features curved lugs, a screw-down crown at 4 o’clock with crown guards, and a unidirectional rotating bezel. The dial is an eye-catching black carbon fiber, designed to mirror the materials used in competitive sailing. It features a power reserve indicator at 6 o’clock, a running seconds counter at 10 o’clock and a date between 2 and 3 o’clock. Offered in exceptional condition, this watch comes complete with its original box and papers, making it a prime opportunity for collectors of both fine timepieces and sailing memorabilia.
