Distinguished watch designer, Gérald Genta, is renowned for his work with numerous brands and a portfolio featuring a myriad of iconic timepieces. Amongst his achievements, Genta established two watch brands under his own name. The second of these, Gerald Charles, named after Genta’s first and middle name, was founded in 2000. Post Genta’s demise in 2011, Federico Ziviani took charge as CEO, imprinting Genta’s signature asymmetric Maestro case as the brand’s identity.

Indeed, not many brands can thrive on the appeal of a single case alone. However, Gerald Charles has successfully managed to break this stereotype. The brand’s latest addition to its illustrious offerings presented during Geneva Watch Days is a watch from the GC Sport family, featuring a striking light turquoise colour palette. The resilient design of this watch, like every other Maestro case, is a testament to Genta’s multifaceted approach.
