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.

Vertex

Vertex, a British watch brand with a storied history dating back to 1916, was founded by Claude Lyons to produce military timepieces for the British Army. Like many other brands, Vertex struggled during the Quartz Crisis, ultimately ceasing production in 1972.

In 2016, Don Cochrane, the great-grandson of Claude Lyons, revived the brand with a mission to honor his family's legacy and reintroduce Vertex's exceptional craftsmanship to a new generation of enthusiasts.
