  • Catalogue Essay

    Gérald Genta is one of the most influential figures in horological history. Having left an indelible mark in watchmaking, he is best known for creating iconic models such as the Patek Philippe Nautilus, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and IWC Ingenieur. His designs are flagship models of each manufacture and some even argue that his creations have themselves become a brand in itself.

    Part of the Gefica Safari line and made during the height of Genta's most creative period, the present watch is cased in titanium and displays a carbon fibre dial. The chronograph wristwatch is enlivened with punches of yellow and blue, giving it a very eye catching appearance. Preserved in new old stock condition, it even retains its original sales tag from 1994 showing that the watch retailed at The Hour Glass, providing a cool element of history.
