Maestro 2.0 Meteorite Darkblast®

GC2.0-SSDB-MT00-RSVC_DLE

"The watch is now available for pre-order. Delivery after 2 months"

The Maestro 2.0 Meteorite, the Maison’s first meteorite timepiece to feature a small-seconds indicator, is a 100-piece limited edition crafted in a Darkblast® stainless-steel case, powered by the ultra-thin Swiss Manufacture automatic Calibre GCA2011 and water-resistant to 100 metres, distinguished by its striking two-level Muonionalusta meteorite dial that brings a truly cosmic character to the watch.

A striking dual-layer construction: a thin slab of meteorite above an aluminum red baseplate. Radial apertures pierce the dial to expose the charged baseplate beneath, evoking the shockwaves of impact. Roman numerals and indexes appear shifted, tilted, displaced as though physically pushed aside by the force of the blast.

The black Velcro strap is a true testament to innovation and craftsmanship. Designed with maximum comfort in mind and crafted in-house in Geneva, the strap is hand-stitched and includes an iron core, ensuring both flexibility and strength. The easy removal system allows customers to effortlessly change the strap, offering a personalized and convenient experience, while maintaining the Maison’s signature quality and attention to detail.

The Muonionalusta meteorite is estimated to be over 4.5 billion years old

The meteorite used for the Maestro 2.0 originates from the Muonionalusta meteorite, making it one of the oldest materials available on Earth. Having fallen in northern Sweden, the quantity of meteorite on Earth is extraordinarily rare, far more limited than gold or diamonds. Its scarcity enhances the significance of every piece produced. Working with meteorite, however, is exceptionally complex. Shaping meteorite to match the Maestro’s complex geometry and engraving the explosion rays at 6 o’clock with near-surgical precision represents one of the most advanced expressions of Gerald Charles expertise.

Born from the Cosmos

The Maestro 2.0’s meteorite originates from Muonionalusta, a fragment over 4.5 billion years old. Highly ferrous and too hard to cut like stone, it yields only to electro-erosion, sliced into ultra-fine layers to become the Maestro form. The Black model embodies the instant of impact, with dark meteorite revealing flashes of red.
