Description:
GERALD GENTA ARENA BI RETRO TITANIUM
Gérald Genta was a legendary Swiss watch designer renowned for his groundbreaking contributions to horology. Born in 1931, Genta’s innovative designs revolutionized the industry, most notably with the creation of the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and the Patek Philippe Nautilus. In 1969, he launched his own eponymous label, through which he explored numerous designs, including the Arena. Named for its resemblance to an actual arena, this model has been produced in various versions, differing in materials and dial designs. The Arena was also manufactured with the Bi-Retro complication. The defining feature of this model is its combination of retrograde minutes and a jumping hour counter.
The present Gérald Genta Arena Bi-Retro is a rare specimen of this iconic model created by the renowned designer. This watch features a bi-retro complication and a titanium case, both extraordinary features for a timepiece manufactured in the early 2000s. The bi-retro complication is exceptional and rarely seen in many watches. Titanium provides superior lightness compared to other materials, giving this watch extreme wearability. The overall condition is very good, with only minimal signs of wear on the case. The caliber functions perfectly, and the dial is flawless. Additionally, the watch comes with its matching titanium bracelet.
