An unmissable (and free!) exhibition awaits watch fans visiting Geneva until May 8.
The Pont de la Machine, an historical building in the heart of the city, is hosting “Time Design – a journey into wristwatch design”.
After a brief evocation of pocket watches, the exhibition focuses on the wristwatch and its stylistic iterations from the early twentieth century to this day.
Some one hundred pieces presented in showcases trace a history combining functional considerations with an inventiveness inspired by the latest fashions, as well as technical advancement in an array of forms, materials and dimensions.
The exhibition also presents a tribute to Gérald Genta featuring his sketches, paintings, and several exceptional timepieces he designed.
