Where does Girard-Perregaux rank in watches?

Where does Girard-Perregaux rank in watches?
Where Girard-Perregaux ranks in watches is somewhat subjective. However, Girard-Perregaux is one of the oldest watchmakers in Switzerland and is widely respected. Standout designs in the company's rich offerings over the years have included the 1884 Tourbillon with three gold bridges spanning the watch dial and framing the horological movement; the first quartz movement watch made in Switzerland in 1971, which set the global standard for quartz watches; the 2008 Constant Escapement L.M. that maintains constant energy on its escapement, solving a long-standing problem of mechanical watch precision; and the Girard-Perregaux 2020 Infinity made with precious onyx. On 1stDibs, find a variety of Girard-Perregaux watches.
