Brand vibe
HGP wears its history firmly and for that, it makes it feel even more.. French? It's a compliment.
This one's a revival of the 1970s French dive-shop brand Hommes Grenouilles de Paris, rebuilt around the original Georges Monnin cases with the 'GM' stamp still on the inner lug. The dials read AUTOMATIQUE and FRANCE at six, the caliber is Seiko or Miyota, and the whole thing is assembled outside Besancon. Vintage-utilitarian without the costume-i-ness those kinds of watches tend to have when poorly executed. This one is confident. Might get one of these myself.

EU framework deal paused after SCOTUS ruling. Currently flat 10% Section 122. [Note as of June 17, 2026: USTR has proposed new Section 301 forced-labor tariffs (~10–12.5%) that, if enacted, would stack on top of current rates. Still in public-comment phase.]
Tariffs are assessed based on where the watch is assembled, not where individual components originate. A watch with a Japanese movement assembled in the US incurs no import duty.
