The Watch

Lip is a French watch brand that has never stopped crafting refined, high-quality timepieces. Since its founding in 1867, it has channeled exceptional creativity and unmatched expertise into producing benchmark watches. This superb Général de Gaulle 35 671877 model is a perfect example - seductive in its vintage, classic design. It is a reissue of the first electric watch gifted to General de Gaulle by Fred Lip in 1958. Impeccably clean, it will delight both men and women who appreciate originality. Its tonneau-shaped case crafted in stainless steel stands out with its polished finish that enhances its brilliance. It measures 35 mm in width and is topped by a mineral crystal protecting the dial. The crown at 3 o'clock handles function settings, with its grooved profile for easy grip, while the screw-down case back ensures water resistance of 5 ATM.

The Dial

The round, silver-toned dial captivates with its clean aesthetic and minimalist design. Enhanced by a sunray finish with brushed lines, it radiates timeless charm. Hours and minutes are displayed by two black baton hands, pointing to twelve black and chrome raised indices. These are complemented by a minute track for added reading precision. A slim silver seconds hand completes the display, while the date window at 3 o'clock keeps track of the day's date. The brand signs its name at 12 o'clock.

The Movement

This beautiful model is powered by a Japanese-made quartz movement - specifically the Ronda 715 caliber, delivering precise and reliable reading of hours, minutes, seconds, and date. It runs on a type 371 battery with a battery life of 60 months.

The Strap

A beautiful black calfskin leather strap accompanies this watch, adding elegance and enhancing your everyday look. Its croco finish and black stitching define its retro style. The lug width measures 18 mm and it fastens with a chrome pin buckle.

Water Resistance

With a water resistance of 5 atmospheres, equivalent to 50 meters, this watch is your first step into the world of water resistance. While not designed for bathing, lap swimming, or scuba diving, you can safely forget to take it off in the shower. That said, our experts recommend keeping this timepiece dry to preserve its mechanism for years to come.
