Maestro 3.0 Chronograph Clay

Geneva, 31st March 2026 - Maison Gerald Charles continues to celebrate its deep and authentic connection with the world of tennis with the launch of the Maestro 3.0 Chronograph Clay, Ref. GC3.0-SSPS-08GR-RSVC_DLE, a new timepiece inspired by the iconic red clay tennis court.

Part of the Chronograph collection, this new model subtly pays tribute to tennis through its distinctive dial, which recalls the design originally introduced on the Maestro GC Sport Clay edition. That model was met with great enthusiasm and quickly sold out, prompting the Maison to reintroduce this highly appreciated aesthetic in a new chronograph interpretation.

Set within a stainless steel case, the dial features a fumé grained finish inspired by the world of tennis, evoking the texture and character of clay courts. This artisanal surface is achieved through a specially grained dial base, enhanced with a clear polished coating that creates a distinctive three-dimensional effect, giving the watch exceptional depth and visual dynamism.

Designed for both performance and everyday wear, the Maestro 3.0 Chronograph Clay offers 5G shock resistance, ensuring robustness and reliability in active conditions.
The watch also guarantees an exceptional level of comfort, meeting Gerald Charles’ proprietary Ergonteq® internal standard, which ensures optimal ergonomics and wearability on the wrist.

Completing the sporty character of the timepiece is a Velcro strap equipped with an easy-release system, allowing the wearer to change the strap independently and effortlessly. Gerald Charles also offers an extensive collection of interchangeable straps in rubber or Velcro, available in a variety of colors to suit every occasion and personal style.

At the heart of the Maestro 3.0 Chronograph beats the Swiss Manufacture 3.0 caliber, delivering exceptional accuracy and reflecting Gerald Charles’ commitment to superior craftsmanship. The distinctive Maestro case is perfectly suited to the chronograph layout, naturally accommodating the three counters at 6 o’clock. The timepiece is further distinguished by pyramidal pushers, carefully contoured to integrate seamlessly with the case, enhancing both aesthetics and wearer comfort.

With the Maestro 3.0 Chronograph Clay, Gerald Charles once again brings together sporting inspiration, technical performance, ergonomic comfort, and distinctive design, reinforcing the Maison’s enduring relationship with the world of tennis.
