{"product_id":"girard-perregaux-mimo-1940","title":"Girard-Perregaux Mimo 1940s","description":"\u003cp\u003eMIMO is a sister brand of Girard-Perregaux, founded in 1918 in La Chaux-de-Fonds under the impetus of Otto Graef, who bought GP in 1928 when the house was on the brink of collapse. The two brands coexisted for two decades, MIMO in Europe and GP in North America, before the third Graef generation merged the two identities in favor of Girard-Perregaux in the 1950s. This 1940s watch is a direct witness to that history: understated, legible, with the black dial typical of the era's aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter 32.5 mm (without crown)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMovement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGirard-Perregaux caliber 06BH, manual winding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDial\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack, patinated with a \"tropical\" effect at the center\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarkers: Arabic numerals, railway-track minute scale around the edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmall seconds at 6 o'clock on a sub-dial\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWrist size in photo \/ video: 17cm\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatch serviced in May 2026\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Girard-Perregaux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53434836386139,"sku":null,"price":547.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/7919\/9835\/files\/girard-perregaux-mimo-1940.jpg?v=1782735518","url":"https:\/\/vintagewatchspirit.com\/en-gb\/products\/girard-perregaux-mimo-1940","provider":"Vintage Watch Spirit ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
