It is said "Behind every great man is a great woman".... Mrs Genta is a true lady. I love that she doesn't shy away from her husbands very humble beginnings, their struggles or regrets. The fact that her husband worked daily is an inspiration to all that greatness doesn't come easy.

First I thought Mrs. Évelyne Genta was overly talking about the cult of her former husband but after I heard the goal of supporting young designers with her foundation the tides turned for me! I think it's a great goal to bring fresh air into the Swiss watch industry. Because I completely agree that especially the big brands didn't come up with truly disrupting designs during the last decades. Thanks so much for another great interview, WATCHES TV!

Was really excited when I found out it was a Genta design, by then I was into the hobby and looking for an affordable Genta designed watch, not knowing I already had one.
