This very attractive Gérald Genta is a rare and innovative creation that reflects the designer’s flair for pushing the boundaries of horological design. Crafted entirely in yellow gold, its unique functionality makes it a standout piece in Genta’s portfolio. Powered by a quartz movement, this watch is a perfect blend of avant-garde technology and timeless craftsmanship. What sets this watch apart is its ability to display five different time zones simultaneously, an exceptional feature rarely seen in luxury timepieces. The primary time zone is adjusted via the crown at 3 o’clock, while the four subsidiary dials, each representing a different time zone, are individually set using the pushers discreetly located on the bends of the case. A thoughtful and functional detail is the day-and-night indicator shown into the four subsidiary dials. Featuring sun and moon motifs, these indicators provide a visual cue for whether it is day or night in each respective time zone. This timepiece is a rare find, as Gérald Genta’s multi-time-zone watches were produced in very limited numbers and are appreciated by the passionate.
