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.

Pin buckle

Pin buckle, also known as tang buckle, is a metal frame with a pin (tongue) attached to one end of the watch strap and a series of holes on the other end of the strap. It is used to securely fasten the watch strap around the wrist. It is one of the traditional and simple closure mechanisms commonly found in various watches. The pin buckle is secured by inserting the pin into the designated hole, allowing the wearer to adjust the fit according to the size of their wrist.
