GC8.0-TX-TN-01
The Maestro 8.0 Squelette watch combines Mr. Genta's unmistakable Maestro case shape with an extraordinary open-worked movement. This skeleton watch truly celebrates the 'art' of the mechanical timepiece and was created by contemporary and world-renowned watch designer Octavio Garcia. The case of the Maestro 8.0 Squelette is based on the Maestro 2.0 Ultra-Thin model, and it has been slimmed down to 8.35mm, to enhance the watch’s ergonomics further and push elegance and performance to their limits. The Maestro 8.0 Squelette is water-resistant to 100 metres.
