Gerald Charles GC3.0 RG size guide
CHRONOGRAPH

The Maestro 3.0

The Maestro GC3.0-RG Chronograph showcases a unique combination: along with the 18-carat rose gold case, the watch features a royal blue sunburst dial and vulcanized rubber strap, decorated with the Maison’s signature Clous de Paris motif on the top side, and with Gerald Charles logo tapisserie on the other. In keeping with the Maison’s vision of sporty-elegant timepieces, this watch conveys casual charm and sophistication, and showcases the most accurate and reliable Swiss mechanics.

THE RIGHT MOVEMENT FOR A MILESTONE WATCH

Movement

For the GC3.0-RG Chronograph, Gerald Charles returned to the Calibre Ref. GCA3022/12, an automatic chronograph movement based on the GCA3002. It offers remarkable thinness, measuring just 6.07mm in height, including its bi-directional rotating oscillating weight, and also offers a twin-barrelled 50-hour power reserve.

This model is powered by an exclusive automatic mechanical calibre customised for Gerald Charles.

WHERE ART AND INNOVATION MEET

The Maestro case 3.0

The Maestro 3.0 Chronograph has a sapphire crystal case back showcasing the beautiful manufacture automatic movement and is carved out of ten pieces of solid 18-carat rose gold. With an overall 40mm fit, it has been subtly but significantly updated with more squared angles. The bespoke chronograph pushers and the overall form have been designed to sit flat on the wrist, measuring only 11.5mm in depth.

INCREDIBLE WATER-RESISTANCE PERFORMANCE

Water-resistance

As with all Gerald Charles watches, they’re water-resistant to 100 metres. The watch has been engineered with a bespoke gasket to seal the irregularly shaped sapphire crystal. Extensive tests have been conducted in the world’s deepest indoor pool built in 2014, thanks to the collaboration of our Friend and Italian Swimmer and European Champion 100m freestyle, Luca Dotto, who dove in apnea wearing the GC watches.

VULCANIZED RUBBER STRAP

Royal Blue

The Gerald Charles strap in royal blue features its classic double-face decoration with Clou de Paris on one side and the GC logo’s tapisserie on the other. This is also an original design by Mr. Genta for the Swiss Maison. The strap material is a technical vulcanized rubber, chosen by the Maison to guarantee superior water resistance, strength, durability and comfort on the wrist.

CHRONOGRAPH

The original drawings’ inspiration

The Maestro 3.0 Chronograph in 18k Rose Gold features a royal blue sunburst dial and the iconic indexes and peculiar hands shape, filled with Super-LumiNova®, directly coming from Mr. Gérald Charles Genta’s original drawings.
