Gerald Charles Maestro GC Sport Tennis Light Turquoise Launches at Geneva Watch Days
The Gerald Charles Maestro GC Sport Tennis Light Turquoise is a limited-edition sports watch priced at €23,800, featuring a 39 by 41.7 mm dark titanium case and a textured turquoise dial. As reported by uhren-nerd.de, the watch measures 8.7 mm thick and weighs 64 grams. The release expands the brand’s sports lineup with its most colorful execution to date, drawing inspiration from high-intensity play.
Design and Titanium Construction of the Light Turquoise Edition
The asymmetric Maestro case is machined from grade 5 titanium with a dark matte Darkblast finish. According to monochrome-watches.com, the case dimensions measure 39mm by 41mm with a slim profile of just 9mm (noted as 8.7 mm by uhren-nerd.de). The watch features a screw-down crown positioned on the left side of the case to prevent it from pressing into the wearer’s hand during physical movement. The grained turquoise dial incorporates a pronounced gradient effect, a white railway-style minutes track, and applied Arabic numerals at 3, 9, and 12 o’clock filled with white Super-LumiNova. It ships with a hand-stitched turquoise Velcro strap secured by a Darkblast titanium buckle.
Calibre GCA2001 Increases Shock Resistance for GC Sport
Inside the case ticks the ultra-thin automatic calibre GCA2001, developed by Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier. The movement maintains a profile of 3.7 mm while delivering a 50-hour power reserve through a twin-barrel setup operating at 4 Hz (28,800 vibrations per hour). monochrome-watches.com notes that the movement has been adapted for the GC Sport series with a 40 percent increase in shock resistance, utilizing an Incabloc system and a re-engineered golden oscillating weight featuring the brand’s honeycomb design to prevent overwinding during intense physical activity.
Pricing and Position Within the Tennis Family
The Light Turquoise edition is strictly limited to 100 pieces worldwide. uhren-nerd.de reports a retail price of €23,800 (including 19 percent German value-added tax), while monochrome-watches.com lists the international retail price at CHF 20,000 or EUR 20,000 excluding VAT. This positions the turquoise model €2,900 higher than its non-limited siblings in the tennis line, such as the yellow fumé dial and the white Darkblast variant, which both retail for €20,900.
