Gerald Genta RSF.X.10

Known as the “Faberge” of our time, Gerald Genta was one of the most recognised watches designers of the 20th century. Still to this day his designs are worn and respected by collectors of all ages and desires. In the 1969 Genta launched his own brand and only until recently has the brand lost it’s identity. For this reason every Gerald Genta watch is unique and very rare. In the 1980’s Gerald Genta earned the right to produce timepieces in tribute to “Walt Disney and “Mickey Mouse”. Many different models were created over the years, in many different styles and complications. To commemorate the first Singapore Formula1 grand prix, Gerald Genta created a limited edition series of 50 pieces in tribute to Mickey and the Grand Prix. This particular Arena Mickey Singapore racer is made in all stainless steel with a titanium bezel. The caseback is solid steel with engraving of the Singapore Grand Prix on the back. It is fitted with the highly compllicated Manufacture calibre mechanical self-winding movement, with retrograde minutes and digital jump hour functions. The dial is black and silver, with motif of Mickey Mouse in racing outfit and chequered flag. The piece is finsihed with a sapphire crystal glass. Part of a private collection.
