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.

Swiss Made

A watch must meet strict criteria to be classified as Swiss. These criteria include that for a watch engine to be manufactured and assembled in Switzerland, at least 60 percent of manufacturing costs must be incurred in Switzerland. In addition, the final inspection of the watch must take place in Switzerland.

The "Swiss Made" designation holds a certain status and signifies that the watch meets high standards of quality, craftsmanship, and precision associated with Swiss watchmaking. It is a label that adds value and credibility to the watch in the eyes of customers and watch enthusiasts.
