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.

Ornamental gems

Ornamental gems, also known as decorative stones, refer to precious stones used as decorative elements in watch designs. These gemstones are selected primarily for their aesthetic qualities and their ability to enhance the visual appearance of the watch.

Ornamental gems used in watches can include natural gemstones such as diamonds, sapphires, blue sapphires, emeralds, and pearls, as well as synthetic or imitation stones that mimic the appearance of natural gemstones. They come in various colors, shapes, and sizes to cater to different design preferences.
