GCA9000

A masterpiece of haute horlogerie, the exclusive manufacture movement unites Gerald Charles’ sartorial soul with technical prowess.

A Genta legacy, reborn

The exclusive manufacture movement features bespoke bridge designs decorated with a special vertical Côtes de Genève pattern inspired by tailoring, thanks to Mr. Genta’s Italian heritage. Anglages diamond polished. Radial côtes de Genève finished bridge of the tourbillon. Yellow gold colour engravings. Gerald Charles’ team succeeded in realizing a highly sophisticated 60-seconds flying tourbillon that oscillates at 4 Hz and in delivering a highly technical mechanical watch that remains incredibly slim.

This movement features bridge designs decorated with a special vertical Côtes de Genève pattern. The plates and bridges feature delicate aesthetic refinements, including diamond-polished anglage that reflects the light.

The flying tourbillon cage is crafted in ultra-light Grade 5 titanium and shaped like the Gerald Charles logo, reducing energy consumption to help preserve the caliber’s 50-hour power reserve.

Half the weight of steel yet far more difficult to machine at such fine tolerances, titanium brings lightness, resistance and warm grey contrasts to the movement architecture.

The 60-second flying tourbillon oscillates at 4Hz beneath a striking 22-karat rose gold oscillating mass, combining technical precision with vivid architectural contrast.
