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.

The Diver collection translates Bell & Ross’ aviation-rooted design into a fully compliant underwater instrument. Rather than adopting the conventional round dive watch template, the brand has insisted on preserving its square architecture while meeting strict professional standards. Following the release of the Green Bronze edition in 2024, Bell & Ross introduced the BR-03 Diver Black Bronze in a refined black aesthetic.

The case measures 42 mm in diameter with a thickness of 12.3 mm and is crafted from brushed and polished CuSn8 bronze. A unidirectional rotating bronze bezel frames the case and features a polished black ceramic insert with a 60-minute scale. Turning the watch over reveals a steel screw-down caseback which, together with the screw-down crown, ensures water resistance of 300 meters.

The dial is executed in glossy black lacquer, offering a deep, reflective surface that heightens contrast against the bronze case. The skeletonized hour and minute hands are filled with white Super-LumiNova, emitting a green glow in low light. Applied baignoire-style indices receive the same luminous treatment for optimal readability, while a circular date window is positioned between 4 and 5 o’clock.

Powering the watch is the BR-CAL.302-1 automatic movement, operating at a frequency of 28,800 vph (4 Hz) and delivering a 54-hour power reserve.

The watch is supplied with a black rubber strap suited to aquatic use, along with an ultra-resilient black synthetic fabric strap for daily wear. Both are secured by a bronze pin buckle. This edition is limited to 999 pieces and is priced at €5,300, approximately AED 23,000.
