The .tc watch is the standard bearer for Girard-Perregaux’s world time watches. Previously, the brand introduced an interesting variant where
the watch showed the times at all major financial markets in the world (ww.tc.financial). This year, the brand has come up with a new version that also
pays heed to commerce, but with a twist.
This new execution for the .tc watch pays heed to women and the inexplicably feminine urge to shop. Instead of listing world time zones conventionally
or by financial hubs, this one lists major shopping destinations. Thus it allows one to see how many shopping hours there are left at these locations.
A quick glance at the visual reveals that the names of cities have been replaced by shopping locations, meaning Orchard Road appears, not Singapore.
The only truly feminine offering on our list, this watch marks the first time- to our knowledge – that any brand has re-interpreted the world
time watch specifically for shopping and for women. The styling is unabashedly feminine, with a mother-of-pearl dial and 77 diamonds in total on the
case and dial. This time though, it is not merely the aesthetic that has received attention in a watch for ladies.
