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.

Vyntage Horology introduces its latest creation for 2026: the Monograph Atoll, a watch featuring a semi-transparent gradient sapphire dial and limited to just 25 pieces worldwide.

A refined expression of the brand’s Monograph collection, the Monograph Atoll marks a return to steel, reconnecting with the roots of classic horology. The watch is crafted in 904L stainless steel, a super-austenitic alloy renowned for its superior corrosion resistance, high polish, and exceptional durability.

The Monograph Atoll retains the signature case design of Vyntage Horology’s chronograph line. The 40 mm diameter and 14.2 mm thickness case incorporates sapphire crystals on both sides, complemented by a polished and circular-brushed bezel, an onion-shaped crown, and a sapphire crystal caseback. Water resistance is rated at 50 meters.

The turquoise sapphire dial, inspired by island and sea tones, features baton indexes without numerals, preserving the dial’s purity. The transparent dial reveals remarkable depth beneath polished silvered indices and silver hands filled with Super-Luminova C1 X1 blue luminescence. The layout includes a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock and a small seconds subdial at 9 o’clock.

Powering the watch is a Swiss-made manual-winding, cam-actuated mono-pusher chronograph movement operating at 28,800 vph (4 Hz) with a 48-hour power reserve. Finished to Vyntage Horology’s exacting standards, the movement displays radiant-polished edges, grey palladium surfaces, and golden inscriptions, including “Vyntage” and “TWENTY-ONE (21) JEWELS” on the bridge, adding a touch of classic elegance.

The watch comes on a green alligator strap with small scales, featuring Vyntage Horology’s signature aquatic lining, double stitching, and easy-release spring bars, secured with a 904L stainless steel buckle engraved with “Vyntage.” An additional black matte rubber strap with a matching stainless steel buckle is also included.

The Vyntage Horology Monograph Atoll is strictly limited to 25 pieces worldwide. Priced at 35,000 AED.
