After founding his eponymous brand in 1969, Gérald Genta revolutionized the world of haute horology by introducing bold designs, groundbreaking complications, and playful creativity. Among his many innovations, the retrograde display became a defining feature of his work, exemplified by this exceptional timepiece. Crafted in stainless steel, the watch here offered showcases Genta’s talent for combining robust materials with elegant design. The round case has been remarkably well preserved, with its engraved details on the case back still clearly visible and diamond bezel. The dial is a true work of art, adorned with a colorful engine-turned guilloché decoration that shimmers with iridescent hues. At 12 o’clock, the jumping hour display takes center stage while between 8 and 4 o’clock is located in the retrograde minutes sector, rendered in delicate mother-of-pearl and highlighted by bold Arabic numerals. The watch also features a retrograde date display between 5 and 7 o’clock, also set against a luminous mother-of-pearl backdrop. The harmony between these elements—jumping hours, retrograde minutes, and retrograde date—demonstrates Genta’s unparalleled ability to merge artistic expression with technical ingenuity. Its combination of playful sophistication, technical brilliance, and luxurious craftsmanship makes it a highly coveted piece among collectors and enthusiasts.
