Well, G.P has a new design coming up... Like TLex, I'm not convinced with the crown-guard design but it might look better in reality...  http://oceanictime.blogspot.no/2012/11/girard-perregaux-sea-hawk-iii-pro.html

Holy cow !  Looks really stunning on that pic. Just seen on oceanictime. I like that case with unique crown guard.

A bit much compared to the sleeker design of the original but

I like it...But the crown-guard should be a bit thicker at the case base...

This Sea Hawk 3 Pro design is a pretty aggressive design jump for a relatively conservative brand like Girard-Perregaux IMO, but I do like it!  Those highly raised markers (and I'm assuming highly raised hands to clear those markers) will lend to alot of dimension and depth under the crystal. The significant departure in the case design from past Sea Hawks sort of reminds me a bit of the Linde Werdelin Oktopus, which I find to be an incredibly designed and finished timepiece. Pretty cool design and will no doubt look much better in real life and in real world pics than the graphic referenced on Oceanictime.

Considering the history of G.P: Traced back to 1791 and already presenting a tourbillon in 1867 who would evolve to be the 3 bridges masterpiece in 1889 and be later declared "out of competition" from 1900 because of the supremacy they had on international exhibitions...(here I take facts from them home-side and resume) It's kind of surprising that in 2002, they take a turn to a monster 3000m diver, pushing the tradition to meet advanced technology: Compared to other similar houses staying much more traditional in design and size. I guess that G.P want to signalize that even they are among the oldest horology houses in the world, they are still young and innovative in the spirit. The Sea-Hawk adventure seems to have just began and I guess that this number 3 will be full of cool surprises...

Wow very radical change. I think it will be a winner.

A conventional strap change would be hard with this reduced lugs passage...

Sorry but the jury is out on this one.  I like the Hawk II and II Pro for their understated elegance and this is moving a bit too much towards the Hublot / Audrey Piglet (Audemars Piquet) school of design for my taste. I really do not like that strap arrangement either.
