Gillot is a marque which began in the 30s, I believe, and whose heyday was the late 1940s. Since then, the brand changed hands several times and in fact frames are being produced even in 2007 with the Gillot badge on 'em, but they're the usual alloy and carbon you get nowadays. This Gillot isn't particularly special, but it's nice and big and it's a lovely colour. Running gear nothing to write home about - this might become a fixie one day but I'm got tunsiv derailleur drivetrains floating about so it's gearied til then. Hubs are Shimano and they're surprisingly good for their age. Bearings move, etc. Bonus.
