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.

Formal Watch

A formal watch is a type of watch designed to be worn with formal attire or elegant fashion. It is characterized by its sleek and classic design, often having a slim and elegant profile, a simple dial, and a thin case. This is done to highlight elegance when wearing formal clothing.

Typically, formal watches do not have additional complications or sports functions, as their main purpose is to serve as an attractive accessory that complements special occasions, business meetings, or formal events. The design of a formal watch focuses on aesthetics and the ability to enhance the overall appearance of the person wearing it during formal occasions.
