The Watch A refined example of Gérald Genta’s distinctive octagonal-cased design, this Ref. G2861.7 is housed in 18ct white gold and features a finely textured dial with elegant baton hands.

The Watchmaker Gérald Genta is celebrated as one of the most influential figures in 20th-century horology, responsible for designing some of the industry’s most iconic timepieces and founding his eponymous brand, known for bold geometry and technical artistry. His creations — from integrated sports watches to distinctive octagonal cases — exemplify avant-garde yet enduring design. Under his own name, Genta produced limited, high-quality timepieces that appeal deeply to collectors and aficionados of independent Swiss watchmaking.
