Gerald Genta Retro Classic Ladies | Gold & Steel | Vintage 1999 Jumping Hour
- Description

- Info
This is the Retro Classic at ladies' scale — 28mm, gold and steel, a luminous mother-of-pearl dial that snaps a new hour digit into the small window at twelve o'clock at the top of every sixty minutes. The jumping-hour mechanism is the same architectural principle Gérald Genta scaled across his atelier's catalogue: hour told as a digit, not a hand. Production year 1999, original parts, complete with luminous hands and indexes, black crocodile strap, pin buckle in gold and steel. Genta (1931–2011) had drawn the Royal Oak (1972) and the Nautilus (1976) for other maisons before his own brand, founded in Geneva in 1969, allowed him to apply the jumping-hour module to a dress watch at this scale. Pre-Bulgari-era production. Authenticated at Almaz Vienna.
