As you may know it, last week, there was a big event in Paris : the Salon Belles Montres which gave to the french people the opportunity to see a lot of novelties from various brands, to meet the watchmakers from independant brands, and to test watches !

Gerald Genta was present through its very nice team of the parisian shop, Laure and Laurent :

I would like to make a focus on 2 watches.

The Gefica of course which can be ordered now and which will be delivered within several weeks :

The other watch is a noveltie and it's very rare. It's the Octo Tourbillon Incontro. When you look at the watch, you see a "classic" Octo with a Tourbillon. But there is a surprise on the caseback : we  find a quartz movement featuring the time, date, days in 4 languages, timer, second time zone,  chronograph and an alarm.

With this pic, you can see the excellent finishings and the details on the case :



A very original watch which corresponds perfectly with the Gerald Genta's style !

Best regards from Paris.
