Gérald Genta Retro Fantasy RSF.X.10.623.CA.BD

Gerald Genta Retro Fantasy Mickey Racing Singapore RSF.X.10 Limited Edition

Famed for first fixing the friendly faces of everyone’s favorite Disney friends onto his watches in the 1980s as the watch designer of his own brand following his acquisition of the rights to do so, Gérald Genta’s design DNA has largely been linked with Mickey Mouse and Disney’s other cartoon characters like Donald Duck. Often dressed in various costumes or during a random activity such as golfing, Genta’s depiction of the characters often enables the character to seamlessly integrate into the function of the watch, with these watches often featuring retrograde minute hands that are designed to operate as the character’s hands. Coupled with its jump hour indication, these timepieces are horologically astute while remaining whimsical in nature. Depicted here is Mickey Mouse himself standing in full car racing attire, in keeping with this variant of ref. RSF.X.10 being released as a limited edition collection of just 50 pieces to celebrate the first Singapore Grand Prix in 2008, where his hand acts as the retrograde minutes hand, with a jump hour display behind him, at 9 o’clock.
