Welcome to Gerald Charles Journal
Gerald Charles’s first work with contemporary art: a unique Maestro GC39 whose dial reinterprets Igor Mitoraj’s sculpture Luci di Nara. Auctioned at Phillips New York for the benefit of Swiss Institute.
Gerald Charles is expanding across Asia, with new openings in Seoul and Osaka and a debut at Bangkok Watch Week. These join a growing network across Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore.
From October 2 to 4, 2026, Gerald Charles joins Milano Watch Week for the first time, an event designed to bring watchmaking closer to the people who love it. Held at Palazzo Mezzanotte in Piazza Affari, the three days gather more than fifty maisons and independent watchmakers in the heart of a city that has always measured beauty by how well it is made.
This September, Geneva becomes a stage for contemporary watchmaking, and Gerald Charles invites you to discover the Masterlink Atelier Edition, a unique timepiece realized by experienced artisans that hand-hammer each dial individually.
Gerald Charles is proud to stand among the watchmakers committed for 2026, joining Watches for ELA International charity auction with Christie’s.
In Manhattan, Gerald Charles hosted its first tennis event, bringing together ATP players and brand ambassadors.
Tourbillon watches are a highly popular and intricate type of mechanical watch featuring a mechanism known as the “tourbillon.” The French word tourbillon means “whirlwind,” a fitting description of its hypnotic motion. Originally developed to improve the accuracy of pocket watches, the tourbillon has carried over into modern wristwatches, standing today as a symbol of high-end watchmaking that embodies technical mastery, precision craftsmanship, and luxury.
