The Sarawak integrated bracelet timepiece!

Jul 15, 2024

GC Sarawak 1Maison Gerald Charles is delighted to announce the predecessor of the Masterlink, the customised Sarawak, launched in 2007 by Gérald Charles Genta. The asymmetric integrated bracelet timepiece, which remained a mystery to the public until now was manufactured as one exclusive piece for the Royal family of Sarawak, a Malaysian state.

This is just one of the thousands of sketches, which remain unpublished from the Gerald Charles archive, a powerful source of inspiration for the creative vision of the Maison. With a value of over 1 million euro and a total of over 15 carats of precious stones, this unique timepiece with a full pavé set bracelet and case in round diamonds and baguette rubies carries the DNA of high-end gem setting which now is signature to the Maison.

Between 2000 and 2011 when Genta was designer in chief of Gerald Charles – the Maison produced high-complicated and bespoke pieces, upon request only, under the direction of Giampaolo Ziviani, uncle to the current CEO.

Genta’s legacy lives on through Gerald Charles! “The Sarawak is the first and the last known asymmetric integrated bracelet timepiece created by Genta, while the Masterlink is the first asymmetric integrated bracelet watch on the market today”, highlights CEO, Federico Ziviani.

Genta’s legacy lives on through Gerald Charles and the Ziviani family. In line with their vision, the heritage passed through generations, from Giampaolo to Federico, from the high watchmaking of the early Gerald Charles to the contemporary and high-end Maison of today.

However, nothing happened by chance. Gerald Charles is a family matter. Genta and the Ziviani family, especially Franco Ziviani who is the current chairman, have always been friends.

“I first met Gérald Charles Genta at the Montres & Bijoux watch fair in Milan in 1982 and we immediately became good friends. I collaborated with him for the Italian release of the Gerald Genta Gefica Safari in 1984.

He then asked for my help when he founded Gerald Charles in 2000 but unfortunately at that time, I wasn’t able to assist as I was Audemars Piguet Italy CEO. So, I asked my brother, Giampaolo, to join and become General Manager. Since then, Genta has always trusted us and our priority has always been to respect his legacy.” Franco said.
