「Watch The World Vlog 150 —— 2026 Watches & Wonders Geneva | In-depth look at Gerald Charles' latest releases: What makes them so sincere? In an era of retro trends, what is the value of Gerald Genta's design spirit, and how is it being passed down?」
Visiting the 2026 Watches & Wonders, it's impossible to miss that "retro" is the current trend. But is retro just "old wine in new bottles"?
In this episode, we take a deep dive into the novelties from independent watchmaker brand Gerald Charles. From a high-performance tennis watch built for the court to the stunning new Masterlink Perpetual Calendar, we’re looking at what "sincerity" in watchmaking actually looks like.
I sat down with Creative Director, Octavio Garcia, celebrity collector Sunny Wang (Wang Yangming), and Hong Kong watch retailer Ronald Lau. Together we explored how Mr. Gerald Genta’s design philosophy is being preserved, its inherent value, and its market potential, and what this retro wave reveals about the future of the industry.
