Genta is becoming the Zagato of watchmaking.

Superb earlier design but now just poor iterations of familiar themes.
Well, he's dead so it's his brand that does the crap. Not sure if he designed this still. Possibly a doodle on his notes they recycled as an original design

HE certainly didn't think of the bracelet version 😁

...but apparently there are many "HIS" different projects "in the drawer" that the brand will bring out, probably reworking them.

I especially didn't like the strategy of insisting on calling the Vaucher movement an "in-house" movement, a lot of confusion about this and also other brands that continue to do so.

Crazy list prices, but those who like it can get a great deal by getting a new one on the gray market at half the price.

What a great answer!

Yes, like Zagato...look at the recent horrible Zagato Astons...a far cry of what Zagato used tò be in the past!

This Gerald Charles (brand name itself Is not that good either) Is an expensive and a bit of a mess, in my honest opinion.

At that price, you Can buy a real hi end Watch, with a proper brand.

And a proper design, i must add.
