Gerald Genta by Orama sunglasses model New Classic 02 Lens- Clear Demo Origin- Made in Italy Size-A-53mm B-20mm C-43mm D-140mm Gérald Genta was one of the most influential designers in modern watchmaking, known for creating iconic models like the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak and the Patek Philippe Nautilus. His work helped redefine luxury sports watches by combining bold geometry, visible screws, and integrated metal bracelets into cohesive designs. In the 1990s, Genta carried many of these same visual principles into his eyewear line, translating watchmaking elements—such as sculptural metal construction, industrial detailing, and precise geometric shapes—into frames. The result was eyewear that echoed the architectural character of his watches, turning glasses into miniature design objects that reflected the same blend of technical precision and avant-garde aesthetics that made his timepieces legendary. Below is the antique leather sleeve which is part of the packaging for the frame along with a storage box and dust cloth; Gérald Genta, the legendary Swiss watch designer, revolutionized luxury watchmaking with his groundbreaking designs, including the iconic Audemars Piguet Royal Oak in 1972. Inspired by a diver’s helmet, the Royal Oak was the first luxury sports watch crafted in stainless steel, featuring an octagonal bezel secured with visible screws and an integrated bracelet—an avant-garde design that reshaped the industry. Genta later created another timeless masterpiece, the Patek Philippe Nautilus, further cementing his reputation as the “Picasso of Watchmaking.” Beyond horology, Genta’s visionary approach extended to eyewear through Gérald Genta by Orama, a collaboration with the Japanese company Orama in the late 1970s and 1980s. This exclusive collection of sunglasses and eyeglasses reflected his signature boldness, craftsmanship, and intricate detailing. Much like his watches, the eyewear featured geometric shapes, gold-plated frames, unique engravings, and high-quality lenses, often incorporating luxurious materials such as 23KT gold plating and mirror-finish lenses
