Gerald Charles Unveils Its Most Complex Timepiece, The Masterlink Perpetual Calendar

Gerald Charles, the independent Swiss watchmaking Maison founded by the great Mr. Gérald Charles Genta, unveils its most complicated watch since its reestablishment less than a decade ago. The Masterlink Perpetual Calendar, developed entirely in-house, marks a new chapter for the young and ambitious Maison as it continues to expand its repertoire of poetic complications.

In keeping with Gerald Charles’s “No Compromise” watchmaking philosophy, established by Mr. Genta more than a quarter of a century ago, the Masterlink Perpetual Calendar introduces an in-house, asymmetrical, automatic perpetual calendar calibre with a three-counter display.

Felipe Pikullik belongs to a new generation of European independent watchmakers who approach haute horlogerie as a personal craft rather than an industrial exercise. Operating from Berlin, the German capital, his atelier has built its reputation on obsessive hand finishing, sculptural architecture, and an uncompromising dedication to artisanal decoration.

In his latest release, the watchmaker introduces the Mondphase II, which inaugurates the new Serie Universum. The collection is reserved for the brand’s most complex creations and represents a creative territory where Pikullik explores multi-layered construction while introducing his first calibre that is 90% developed and produced in-house.

The watch is housed in a 41 mm case with a thickness of 10.5 mm. It is available in stainless steel, bronze, and platinum, each executed with a combination of brushed and polished surfaces. A sapphire caseback reveals the decorated movement and bears the individual numbering of each piece. Water resistance is rated at 50 meters.

The dial is built around a deep blue aventurine surface that forms a luminous backdrop for the mechanical elements. Time is displayed through openworked hands that sweep across a skeletonized chapter ring positioned on the right side. The moonphase appears in a three-dimensional format, while a discreet 24-hour indication is positioned at 12 o’clock. Polished bridges, exposed wheels, and visible regulating components create a layered composition that emphasizes depth, contrast, and meticulous hand finishing.

Powering the watch is a manually wound calibre developed by the brand, FPMP2. It operates at a frequency of 21,600 vph (3 Hz) and delivers a power reserve of 40 hours. The watch is fitted with a calfskin leather strap that integrates seamlessly into the case profile and is secured by a pin buckle matching the case material.

Each version is produced in a limited edition of 20 pieces. Pricing is set at EUR 45,000 ≈ AED 194,200 for stainless steel, EUR 58,000 ≈ AED 250,300 for bronze, and EUR 65,000 ≈ AED 280,500 for platinum.
