The watch features an 18K rose-gold dial with a Clous de Paris pattern and 18K gold baton hands with luminescent material.
The case dimensions are 39mm in diameter, 46mm lug-to-lug, and 9.8mm in thickness, with a sapphire display case back affixed via four screws.
The GP4800 movement is an automatic winding caliber with a frequency of 28,800vph (4Hz), 163 components, 19 jewels, an 18K rose gold rotor, and a silicon escapement.
The integrated bracelet is described as uber comfortable with top-notch finishing, featuring brushed surfaces, polished center links, and bevels, along with an easy-to-use 4mm extension system.
The clasp is personalized with a cut-out GP logo.
The reviewer prefers the full-steel version with the rose-gold dial over the bi-color model due to the latter using gold-capped center links instead of solid gold.
The rose-gold dial version is slightly thinner than the blue enamel dial version.
The GP4800 movement is noted for its haute horlogerie finishing, particularly the rose-gold rotor and balance-wheel bridge, contrasting with the more industrial look of the previous GP01800 movement.
