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.

Lugs

Lugs

Are the protrusions or arms located on the sides of the watch case that connect the case to the strap or bracelet. They serve as attachment points for the strap or bracelet, allowing the watch to be securely worn on the wrist.

Lugs come in various shapes and designs depending on the watch model. They play a fundamental role in the aesthetics and functionality of the watch, as they determine the type of strap or bracelet that can be fitted to the watch.
