In the course of the evening, Francesco Trapani, CEO of Bulgari and Gerald
Roden, CEO of Gerald Genta, welcomed more than 140 people to the new flagship
store.

The party began with a tour of the boutique, a chance to discover all the
collections, and a presentation of our museum pieces organised especially for
this event — followed by a cocktail held in the "Orchid Salon" of the Park
Hyatt Hotel, beautifully decorated for the occasion in Gerald Genta’s red and
black signature colours.

About Gerald Genta :
Inventive and unconventional, Gerald Genta was founded in 1969. In that
exact same spirit, the Gerald Genta collections continue shaking up the
traditionally discreet and classic world of Haute Horlogerie.

In 1979 the company received the highly coveted "Poincon de Geneve", a
symbol of excellence and perfection in high-end movements.

In June 2000 the Bulgari Group acquired Gerald Genta S.A.

Today, Gerald Genta is the only Haute Horlogerie brand offering exclusively
complex movements combined with an avant-garde design. Using innovative
materials, coupled with ingenious technology and highly complicated movements,
it daily accompanies cosmopolitan and non-conformist watch enthusiasts.

The Manufacture Gerald Genta is located both in Geneva and in the village
of Le Sentier, at the heart of the Vallee de Joux, where a team of highly
experienced watchmakers and technicians combines skilled craftsmanship with
cutting-edge technologies to develop and craft all kinds of complication
movements. The new building, will open in a few weeks. The new manufacture will
square 1950 m2.
